The Flagler women’s soccer team is coming off a 3-13-1 season, which some would like to forget.

The Boston bad boys drop their sixth cd with a Celtic twist. The album, The Meanest of Times, rocks their traditional style with a prominent Celtic influence.
The band recorded parts of the CD in Ireland to give an authentic feel, or as Dropkick put it, “to learn a thing or two about how it is really done.” Using influences from traditional Gaelic groups such as the Dubliners, who make a guest appearance on the song “Flannigan’s Ball,” Dropkick brings their new technique to the song “The State of Massachusetts.”

Flagler’s men’s soccer program is at a crossroads with a five-game losing streak and half of the season left.
The team began the season hoping to build on the late season success from last year, but suffered a 0-3 loss on opening night to Eckerd College.
Flagler fell to No. 20 (NAIA) Savannah College of Art and Design 4-0 on Sept. 29 in a non-conference home game. SCAD outshot Flagler 20-6 and held a 6-3 edge in corner kicks as they dropped the men to 0-8-1.

Glenn Kiture, outfielder for the Flagler College baseball team, is much more than a college athlete, let alone baseball player.
When asked what one of the biggest misconceptions of the college athlete is, he said, “That they are pig-headed, full of themselves, that they get special privileges, and are always looking for an easy way out academically.”

Art walks are common in St. Augustine, with new exhibitions the first Friday of every month. But Oct. 5 marks the first Art Walk for Breast Cancer, an event raising money and awareness to fight breast cancer.
The Art Walk for Breast Cancer was designed to raise awareness and money for The Donna Hicken Foundation, Keep A Breast, Bosom Buddies and Art Breakers, which all make an effort to prevent, detect and cure breast cancer.
Rob Depiazza, owner of Screen Arts on West King Street, is on the committee for the Art Walk Association and is excited about the event. Depiazza made the connection with the Keep A Breast organization and brought together most of the artists.
