Continued From Page 9B
In the future, the U.S. should look at scrapping the all-star
team concept for the Oljmiplcs. One Idea that deserves a look
is Inviting the NCAA champion to represent the nation, a
common practice up until the 1950s. Or now that athletes can
actually be paid and participate in the Games, the NBA cham
pions could be a representative group. If professional tennis
players could participate this year, why not the best pro
team?
But as Thompson said, the team will probably be allowed
back into the country. Not as 01}mipic champions, though.
Livingstone Golf Coach
Moves To Greener Pasture
Maintaining a positive attitude
and pleasant smile has been the
classic trademark of Living
stone College golf coach and
admissions counselor, Andre
Springs.
A native of Charlotte and grad
uate of Fayetteville State Uni
versity, Springs who guided the
Bears to back-to-back CIAA
Championships and national
rankings, has resigned to be
come Director of the Highland
Park Golf Course in Cleveland,
Ohio effective September 21th.
Springs indicated that High
land Park is the site of the na
tional black college finals, and
also cited his desire to work
with Junior programs on a wide
spread basic while being able to
spend more time concentrating
on developing his own game.
Friends, co-workers and golf
team members recently gath
ered in the Aggrey Student Un
ion on the Livingstone Campus
to roast Springs and share in
some good natured revelry.
Dr. Walter Hawks, Vice-
President of Student Affairs
commended Springs for his
work as an Admissions Counse
lor which won him a state-wide
award for his efforts in 1982.
According to Dr. Hawks "in per
forming his duties, Andre had a
positive, progressive attitude
that I wish our students would
emulate as a positive role mod
el”.
The Bears won the CIAA Golf
Championship in 1985, placed
second in 1986, then first again
each of the past two seasons,
earning conference coach of the
year in 1987 and 1988. Living
stone placed second in the na
tional tournament at Cleveland
in 1987 and fifth this year.
Perhaps his most notable ac
complishments were personal
as last year he and partner Lar
ry Frost became the first black
team to win the Labor Day Four
Ball Championship at the Salis
bury Country Club. Springs also
won the 1985 North-^uth Car
olina Minority Championship
and the 1986 East-West Classic
in Scottsdale, Arizona.
In expressing his gratitude for
the surprise roast Springs sim
ply stated, "Livingstone has
been a wonderful experience for
me. It's been a good nine years".
Springs and his wife Chlquita
have been married for six years
and they have a son Andre, Jr.
