The Aletheia Montreal-Anderson College September 9, 1994 "Soccer" in the Eye by J. R. Cunningham The soccer squad is back in action for another exciting sea son. Besides rolling out of bed in the morning for a brisk 6:30 am. run, the kickers practice al most three hours in the after noon in preparation for the up coming season. The soccer team, led by Coach Steve Schutt, traveled to Lynchburg, Virginia, last week end to battle two tough Division II schools. The Cavaliers dropped a tough 6-3 to the crew from Lynchburg College. Senior soccer player and Howerton resident Eric Brown stated, "We played good as a team, but we were just out- manned." Size definitely played a big role in the game as the Cavaliers had trouble matching up to the size of the Lynchburg team. As a NCAA Division II team, Lynchburg utilized their advantage by going to their strong substitutes during the game. Brown noted, "They had a lot more subs which made it harder on our team." Lady Cavs Volleyball Team Spiked with Experience by Stephanie Young The 1994-95 Volleyball team kicked off this season with eight returning players and only two new players. Senior and team member Traci Haynes stated, "This year's team is at an advantage because of the number of re turning players.

We are going to surprise many of the opposing teams." Setter Mindy Coyle, who returned after a year off, expressed, "This year's team has learned a great deal from Coach Darin "Last year was a learning ex perience for the team. We were learning how to play with one an other. Now we know the way each Chaplain these last three weeks of pre-season training. One of the rea sons we haved learned so much was due to the fact that Coach Chaplain has prepared himself and has gained more knowledge of the sport. Tak ing a year off has given me an objec tive perspective of how much the volleyball program has grown." Chaplain emphasized, "Al though this team has only won one game so far and lost six, they are the best team that the school has ever had. They are head and shoulders above previous teams. They have played two tough conference teams [King andTusculum] in pre-season play. "Our biggest concern is that we prepare ourselves for the season up ahead, which began on Septem ber 6." On-campus student Dave Walters chipped in 2 goals in the contest, while Dave Jarema also added a score. In the second game, the Cavaliers battled Randolph Ma con strongly before falling 6-1 when time expired. Mid Field player Leland Globke scored the lone goal for the Cavaliers as the team expe rienced a disappointing match. Coach Schutt's men were again overpowered as they lost Phil Lomac to an injury, which fensive assault. Dave Jarema stated, "It really hurt us when we lost Phil and we experienced a number of other injuries." After Lomac left the game, Jarema was moved to the middle and the Cavaliers kept fighting until they ultimately outplayed. Though experiencing the two losses last weekend, the Cavaliers are in no way down in spirit. After preparing to maul a Lincoln Memorial team on Tues day, the crew called off the at tack due to Memorial's no-show. The Cavaliers are anxiously awaiting the weekend match-up with Covenant. "It'll be a tough showing, but we should fair re ally well," commented Globke. Tough indeed, as Covenant walked away with the confer ence trophy three years straight. Forward player Dave Jarema added, "Hopefully if we get a good turnout from the fans, and we perform to the best of our ability God has given us, then we'll come out on top this season." inevitably wounded M-AC's of Admissions Hires Investigators to Reduce Mailing and Phone Costs by Christian Maione This year the Admission's De partment started a new program called telecounseling. The telecounselors are students who work part-time in the Admission's Of fice for about ten hours a week. They call high school stu dents on the college's mailing list and inquire about their interest here at M-AC. If the student is interested, the telecounselor refers him/her to the Admission's counse lor of that area. If the student is uninterested, their name is taken off the mailing list. By doing this, the college saves a great deal in mail and phone cost. Making those calls separates the serious in Telecounselors Gigi Bartlett Kelly Maumenee Summer Baxter Amy Parsley Amy Buckner Rena Sawyer Jodie Carriker Chao Smith Sarai Fortney Amy Standifer Zola Griffin Marci Vance quiries from the casual ones. Admission's Counselor and head of this program Heidi Osier com mented, "They basically have two jobs: passing on good leads and disqualifying bad ones. That way we save time and money." Despite constant rejection from some of the prospective students, the telecounselors all shared that they love their jobs. Vance mut tered, "We get more rejections than anyone else on campus." These twelve telecounselors play a vital part in the future of M- AC as they take part in encouraging students to enroll here at this Christ- centered college. Osier pridefully remarked, "We're excited about it. They have made close to 900 calls so far this year." Have You Heard the News? An editorial... The Pledge of Aletheia by Chad Smith EdItor-in-Chief "Finally brothers, whatever is true, whatever is noble, whatever is right, whatever is pure, whatever is lovely, whatever is admirable—if anything is excellent or praiseworthy—think about such things." With these tmths, the Aletheia will steer towards these few goals. First, we will glorify God in every aspect. I feel this can be done if we as a newspaper staffand student body ask ourselves: "What would Jesus do?" Second, we will uphold and support our First Amendment Right to freedom of speech. Third, we would like this paper to be beneficial to the communica tion between the students and faculty. Fourth, we want the quality of the articles to be'as professional as those found in larger newspapers. Since Aletheia means Truth, we as a newspaper staff promise to stand for Truth at all times, and at all times honor Christ in the articles we print and in the ways we present facts and information. by Aron Gabriel ...Former students Cheryl Baiera and John Erick Harris were married at Montreal Presbyterian Church Sunday afternoon on Au gust 6,1994. ...William R.
