By Summer Bozeman Since her freshman year, senior Amanda Cole has organized the Flagler College Campus Cure for Cancer by herself. But after she graduates this spring, there may be no one to take over for her. At her home in Dayton, Ohio, Cole was…

PHOTO CAPTION: Flagler baseball players and volleyball line judges Glenn Kiture and Brett Cooper discuss the ongoing volleyball match between points. Both Kiture and Cooper are Sport Management majors at Flagler. They volunteer as line judges and Kiture says there is no pro Flagler bias.
It has been a really close game with the scored tied. Embry-Riddle sets the ball, and the middle blocker attacks. The ball lands on the line. What is the call? In or out? It all comes down to Flagler athlete, Glenn Kiture, line judge for the Flagler volleyball team.
Kiture’s line judging career started as a favor to a friend, and it turned out to be something he enjoyed and has continued.
“The first match was difficult for me because I was nervous, but now I got the hang of things,” he said.

I was surprised to notice that after the revision to the paper, Eric Waldron’s article remained unchanged.
Although his headline states “Even abroad, life is always full of quirks,” he relied on hurtful, ignorant stereotypes and clichés instead of saying anything quirky or positive about other cultures.
By Devon Jeffreys Last Wednesday, the New York Mets, my favorite baseball team since I was just a year old (see the hat), played their first playoff game since 2000. As you can expect I was … not glued to the TV. I was at…

PHOTO CAPTION: The Lady Saints fell to Palm Beach Atlantic and Lynn University over the weekend. Head Coach Taylor Mott attributes the loss to the team’s lack of mental toughness. “When we’re losing these five-game matches it is because mentally we’re not tough enough,” she said.
The Flagler Volleyball team entered last weekend facing a test and their performance left much room for improvement.
Coming off two easy wins during the week, the Lady Saints hosted Palm Beach Atlantic Saturday. The match up featured two teams that hope to soon be a part of the NCAA Div. II Sunshine State Conference.

PHOTO CAPTION: The Lady Saints beat both Riddle and Northwood last week.
Last week Flagler Volleyball proved one of the reasons that made the move to NCAA Div. II a no brainer. They have moved a step above the competition in the Florida Sun Conference.
The Lady Saints entered action on Sept. 26 with a record of 13-5 facing rival Embry-Riddle. Flagler handled Riddle top to bottom and the victory was never in doubt as a sweep came with relative ease. The series between the Lady Saints and the Eagles seems to have lost its past luster as Riddle struggles to keep its head above water this season at 10-11.
So this season I got talked into joining a fantasy football league. No one seemed to be bothered by the fact that I could only name a handful of NFL players (all quarterbacks) or that I would rather comment on the teams’ uniforms (What is up with Miami’s color scheme anyway?) than their football skills.
Or maybe that’s exactly why I was asked to join. Who knows?

The Flagler College Lady Saints volleyball squad returned to action Friday after a six-day layoff and picked up right where they left off.
The Lady Saints extended their winning streak to six matches with a 3 games to 1 victory over NCAA Div. I Stetson University.
In the first game, Flagler would not trail after going down 1-0 on the first point and cruised to a 30-19 victory.
