The Flagler College women’s tennis team enters the 2011 season with high hopes for improving upon last year’s 14-8 record.

The Saints’ impressive 2010 campaign came to an end at the hands of conference rival Francis Marion in the second round of the Division II Southeast Regional Tournament. Despite the loss, the team is ranked No. 16 in the 2011 Campbell’s/ITA Division II Preseason poll and expects even bigger accomplishments this year.

Turning to my left I am shocked to see two girls sloppily making out on a bed. One suddenly gets up, walks over to an overly tanned guy, straddles him and then attempts to give him a lap dance.

Ah, “Jersey Shore.” Turning back to the TV attached to my own treadmill, I flip through the channels looking for something a little less…primitive.

The Flagler College women’s basketball team has two players who are complete opposites in stature but alike in their love for the game.

Sophomore Rachel Brown stands above the rest at 6 feet 7 inches, while freshman Ebonee Bell doesn’t let her size of 5 feet 2 inches bring her down. The two girls said they hardly notice their height differences compared to their opponents.
