finish 10-18
By Richard Mclntire
The final spike of the
CIAA VolleyballToumament
November 1 brought to a close
not only the tournament, but
the 1988 season for all of the
h participants.
'. While last year's team
posted an 18-8 record, this
I year’s statistics are quite the
!' opposite. The Lady Vikings
■ posted a 10-18 record this year,
placing fourth in the division,
i. Head coach Dr. Debbie
t' Lynch shed some light on the
•' situation. “Five players from
I ’ last year didn’t return,” ex-
' plains Lynch. “1 had a whole
new team. It was a rebuilding
> year."
But Lynch has high hopes
for 1989 and says that "all that
is needed is a little recruit-
ment, and hopefully we'll
come back stronger next year."

ment was made at the National Busi
ness League’s National Convention

In accepting the award, Jenkins
noted, “While I accept this award
personally, I must hasten to say that I
do so also on behalf of many col
leagues who understand the moral
responsibility we have as leaders, not
only to keep the doors of opportunity
ajar for those who desperately de
pend on our leadership but who also
understand that we must exert every
ounce of energy and skill that we
possess to open wider those doors so
that those inalienable rights so elo
quently captured in the Preamble to
the Constitution are internalized as
expectations by our people.”
this part of the process can be more
