Flagler College junior Keila Davisson recently started shopping online and has been noticing an odd trend in the advertisements she has seen ever since. On her blog, Google searches and other websites visited, Davisson’s advertisements have all curiously featured exactly her favorite bands, brands, and even events going on in her hometown.


Flagler continues strong defense, great offense

Flagler Colleges men’s soccer team completed their 13th game on Thursday night when they defeated Saint Xavier, 7-1. Zach Shanahan scored twice for the Saints, while 5 different players each contributed to Flagler’s high goal total.

It’s beginning to look like another promising season for the Saints, with its defense playing a major role in their victories. The one goal given up on Thursday’s match was just the 12th goal allowed. However, the stat looks a little odd when realizing that Flagler has shutout opponents eight times out of its 13 total games. Seven of their goals given up were in a three game streak against Rollins, Lander and Lynn.

On Sunday, October 16th, the Flagler College surf team competed in the NSSA (National Scholastic Surfing Association) College Men and Women contest in New Symrna Beach, Fla. Despite the small surfing conditions, the team placed third overall.

The team had several members advance throughout their heats and had two make it to the finals. “The waves sucked and it was challenging out there to get the scores needed to make heats, but at least we had some guys advance to finals,” Stephen Kaltenbach, a junior, said.
