scaeof 15-13.
Befrae the game Coach Chaplain com
mented, "It was a tough match, and there was a
fineline between winningandlosing," Freshman
Gail Collings- worth fitom Kingsport, Tennessee
stated "It was a pretty hard game, but we could
have pdayed better than what we did
Despite their defeat against Tusculum, the
Lady Cavs Kept their heads held high. 'We had
a couple of jxoblems, but we held together, and
played tough through the third game," stated
Becky Brown.
Theirplaying strategy changed unexpect
edly, causing the team to be off guard by the
different arrangement
In reference to their next encounter with
Tusculum, Brown stated 'We will definitely be
ready fw them, when they come back here."
Biology students will reachnewheights;
6684 feet to be exact. Brad Daniel, Biology
professor, brags, "We're the only intro class in
North Carolina that takes students to the
highest point east of the Mississiptpi River."
All Biology "students are required to go to Mt.
MitcheU this Saturday at 8:30 am. All stu
dents at6 welcome to go, but they must pro
vide their own transportation. 't.y.
At Mt. Mitchell, biology students njust
observe historical infonnatioh about Mt.
Mitchell and the surrounding mountain range
in the museuins. They must explore the moun
tain with the liiology teachers.
The ttqio^ student pjppulation will be
divided into four groups. While one group is
in the museum, the others will lie exploring
the mountain.
Lunch is being served at noon. Any
student venturing with the biology group who
isn't in Biology needs to let the cafeteria
know.
Brad Daniel explain^ three options,
sponsored by the TNT adventure club, that
students have for returning to campus: hike
nine miles down the toll road, or mountain
bike the toll road, for 14 miles; or take a 40
mile bike ride dOwii the parkway.
Biology teachers, Mark Lassiter and
Mike Sonnenberg, think students will enjoy
the Mt. Mitchell trip. Sonnenberg said, "Most
kids that go find it very different from most
things they'vedone... students benefit greatly
if nothing more thaj being inspired."
