Being a broke college student, I get by on the little things in life.
Living in St. Augustine, it’s easy to walk around on a full stomach for free. It’s become such an integral part of my weekly routine that I have worked my schedule around the times I can go consume large amounts of free food at multiple establishments.
Temperatures are below freezing in the Northeast and 500,000 people are still without power due to Hurricane Sandy’s devastation. Thousands of residents in New Jersey and New York are displaced, having lost their homes and access to basic resources that we all take for granted.
Colleen Keener, 21, a Flagler College student from Belmar, New Jersey couldn’t sit back and look at photos of the damage any longer.

With the season rapidly approaching, head coach Erika Lang Montgomery has her team in high gear. The Women’s basketball team has been preparing for the last few months for a season that could very well be one of their best in the Peach Belt Conference.
Coach Lang Montgomery feels that this could be the year the team makes a strong argument in conference play and makes it to the post season Conference tournament. The team has a very strong core group of girls with eight returners and five newcomers including three seniors Jen Knurek, Arianna Roper, and Rachel Brown. The team has not had a winning season as a member of the Peach Belt since they joined four years ago from the NAIA Florida Sun Conference. But that isn’t stopping the team this year, they are using that as motivation.

Santiago Cavanagh always wanted to coach a golf team, and in 2008 his desire came true when he took over the Flagler College women’s golf team. In the spring of 2009 started coaching the men’s team, as well.

The Flagler women’s soccer team celebrated the athletic careers of six seniors last week. Loren Cate, Amanda Slevin, Cristina Coca, Lindsay Zullo and Marisa Strawn partook in the celebration of the four years they spent committed to the women’s soccer team.
Through the four years these girls spent day in and day out practicing, traveling, and playing their hearts out, and many strong statistics came out of their careers.
