For the past
three weeks the women’s club volleyball team has been vying
to host a weekend tournament in Boone that would consist mainly
of teams from North Carolina. The team was not able to get a commitment
from many schools, so they went out and beat everyone at Wake Forest
University instead.
One week after the tournament at Appalachian State
University fell through, the women went to Wake Forest to compete
March 30.

The Mountaineers
traveled to Paul Derr Stadium at North Carolina State University
last weekend to compete in the Adidas Raleigh Relays. Appalachian
track and field competed amongst some of the best teams in the country.
The athletes responded to the heightened level of competition by
earning several NCAA Regional Qualifying performances.
Suzanne Makinson vaulted a season’s best
3.66 meters, which is approximately 12 feet. The effort earned her
a trip to George Mason University in Fairfax, Va., for the regional
meet. Ronda White continued her successful track season, earning
a qualifier in the triple jump. Her 12.33 meter effort was well
above the 12.19 standard. White was also only 6 inches shy of a
qualifier in the long jump.
