The spring semester is right around the corner, despite this week’s snow. The football season is over, ACU basketball is in full swing, and baseball and softball will be starting soon. But for students whose favorite sports didn’t make that list, the spring will present some alternatives.

Spring intramurals are an opportunity for students like Jordan Bell to play sports they enjoy. Bell, freshman art major from Waco, says he is most looking forward to basketball. He’s not the only one.

“Hey, if I can find a team that needs a post, I’m their guy,” says Chris Marshall, freshman history major from Kermit.

Basketball is a favorite of many students; however, the intramural office will offer several popular sports, including a mixed doubles tennis tournament, volleyball, softball and soccer. Spring intramurals run from January to May and feature leagues for students of all skill levels – a competitive Championship League and a more laid-back Rec League.

Kenli Edwards, director of intramurals, says intramural sports are a great way to get involved in campus activities.

“We try to provide an atmosphere that is not only challenging but also fun for everybody on campus,” she said.
