Intramurals Finals Week is here

December 5, 2014 by Daniel Block

The 2014 intramural season has come and gone faster than a Kojie-Moonie dating relationship. Championships have been won, tempers have been lost and glory has been found on the courts and in the pools of the Rec. This week alone, four teams added their names to the famed intramural championship hall, forever immortalized as the ... [Read More…]

Volleyball, waterball under way in Rec

November 4, 2014 by Daniel Block

Football is finally over, which means it's time for Texas' favorite fall sport to begin. Volleyball! OK, so perhaps my first volleyball column should focus on simply setting forth the rules and clarifying terminology for all you Texas high school football has-beens, but I'm going to bump that idea. The season is barely underway and already, ... [Read More…]

Intramural playoff action gets under way

October 21, 2014 by Daniel Block

There are two seasons in every sport. First, each team participates in the regular season. The regular season is often long and drawn out, and teams gain and lose momentum faster than a Welcome Week relationship falls apart. But, unlike most ACU matches, it's not the squad fastest out of the gate that wins the championship. The best teams aren't ... [Read More…]

Playoffs!? Don’t talk about playoffs!

October 14, 2014 by Daniel Block

Today I'm going against Jim Mora's wishes and talking about playoffs. You know, that little mini-tournament teams play in at the end of the year which claims to crown a league champion, but really only determines which team plays the best in cold weather? Yes, playoffs. Oh, you still don't know what I'm talking about? You've never heard of ... [Read More…]

Flag football season heats up down the stretch

October 7, 2014 by Daniel Block

We've hit the homestretch of the flag football season and there's little sign of any team slowing down. Of course, a few teams never really got started, so slowing down isn't an option for them in the first place. I'm looking at you, Thunder Ducks and Boyz in Motion. Only a week remains in the regular season and many teams are fighting for ... [Read More…]

New spin on Intramurals

September 30, 2014 by Madeline Orr

This weekend, I played in the intramural Ultimate Frisbee tournament. Well actually, I just ran around and congested the middle of the field with defenders who didn't know I wasn't actually going to touch the Frisbee. I was asked to play only because, being a co-ed tournament, there was a requirement of at least two female players per team on ... [Read More…]

Dream Team Frisbee dominates intramural tournament

September 30, 2014 by Daniel Block

Ramsey Towell, senior computer science major from Abilene, woke with a start early Saturday morning, dripping in a cold sweat. He'd never experienced a nightmare like this before - the annual intramural Ultimate Frisbee tournament had been canceled. Back to reality, he sighed in relief and tried to slow his rapid breathing. He calmly rested the ... [Read More…]

"Ending my college education early was always the plan for me, but the things that I have been able to see, experience and examine about ACU’s community were not. I have found immense growth in ACU over the past three and a half years, but ACU still has a long road to climb if it wants to keep catering to students as the world changes around them."
