Men’s Cross Country Places 26th at Nationals

After an exhilarating race at the regional competition, the Men’s Cross Country team earned their tickets to the NCAA National Championships in Spokane, Washington. They were a top team in the Sunshine State Conference as well as in the entire southern region for Division II athletics. These fierce runners had two weeks to critically train and mentally prepare themselves for the frigid mountainous territory they were about to enter. For two weeks, they ran, rested and worked out to make sure this flight was worth fighting for. On Thursday morning, the Lions packed their bags and embarked on this journey that they earned through a tough and outstanding season.

2013 Major League Baseball Season Preview and Predictions

Almost two weeks ago, on Easter Sunday, the 2013 Major League Baseball season began as the Houston Astros defeated the Texas Rangers. After over 50 years in the National League, the Astros played their first game in the American League. The Astros moved from the NL Central division, which previously had six teams, and moved to the AL West, which previously had four teams. This move has evened up all divisions across the MLB, with each league containing three divisions of five teams. Because of this, almost every day will contain an interleague game (AL team vs. NL team), an occurrence that was limited to a few weeks in July in previous years. With all that being said, the 2013 season is sure to be an exciting and interesting one.
