Tiger guard adjusting to change
By CONOR NICHOLL
Last season, the Fort Hays State University's line play was considered the offense's strongest position group with three returning starters and a quintet that played together all spring and fall 2012.
This fall, the Tigers have encountered multiple changes up front. Each position has a new starter from last year. Only sophomore Jarred Stindt returns with any starting experience, but he switched to guard after he played center all 2012.
In the team's first 2013 scrimmage, sophomore Matt Erbert, a starting guard as a freshman and expected to be at right tackle this year, hurt his knee and is out for the year.
"We were down right when it happened," Stindt said. "Oh no, what's going to happen.' but we realize one goes down, the other one is going to step up."
Fort Hays has shuffled the line several times in camp and still doesn't have left guard solidified entering game week against Emporia State University. The Tigers open the season Thursday with a 7 p.m. start at Lewis Field Stadium.
"Trying to get them all to jell and that rhythm and consistency down has been a challenge," third-year offensive coordinator Justin Schreiber said. "We are getting a lot closer than we were a week ago.
"I have saw some great improvements and that just comes down to having some consistency finally, and it all starts up front," he added. "I think we are starting to find some guys that are working well together and once it gets taken care of there, everything else I feel should come together. We do have some pretty good athletes."
Last season, FHSU had 74 career games played (61 starts) among the starting five. This year's group has 18 games played in a Tiger uniform and 11 starts, all from Stindt.
"A lot more confidence out there," said Stindt, from Class 2-1A Belleville-Republic County. "Last year, I was kind of feeling my way out, coming from a small high school and having to step onto a stage like this is a big change, but I feel myself being quite a bit more confident actually."
In addition to Stindt's position change, FHSU has found Erbert's replacement. Freshman Trevor Shankle manned the position shortly, but now senior Mario Abundez, a reserve who played in five games a year ago, moved from tackle to guard. Abundez is 6-foot-4, 295 pounds and Stindt stands 6-2, 285.
"Time is going to help everything, but we are a tight-knit group," Stindt said. "I think all of the guys in there, we talk, that's who we hang out with when we are not on the field even. Time is going to help. More practice, more repetition, more watching film, it's all the stuff that we need to do. I think we are getting there."
Senior Greg List (6-3, 285) takes over at center and sophomore Luke Edney (6-4, 270) will be left tackle.
"With Mario being at guard, it was good for pulling, but it wasn't good for the O-line," sophomore quarterback Treveon Albert said. "Putting him at right tackle is way better, because we didn't have that edge pressure like we used to."
List played at Butler County Community College for two seasons before he appeared in one game for Fort Hays last year. List has become a very vocal presence on the line.
"Done a good job of getting those linemen going and ready to play," third-year coach Chris Brown said. "It's good to see those guys do that."
Third-year offensive line coach Justin Iske has led the line to the best rushing numbers since the Tigers moved to the MIAA before the 2006 season. In Iske's first year, FHSU averaged 189.2 rushing yards a game and 4.7 yards per carry. Last year, despite cycling through multiple running backs because of injury, FHSU averaged 174.2 rushing yards a game and 4.6 yards a carry for a 5-6 team.
"He is very loud, but sometimes you have got to be loud to get the point across," Stindt said of Iske.
Fort Hays was seventh best in the 15-team MIAA in rushing and sixth in yards per carry. But the Tigers' sack rate jumped from 7.81 sacks allowed per 100 pass attempts to 9.90, second-worst in the conference. This season, Iske will looks to lead a reshuffled group to another solid season.
"He is a really positive coach," Stindt said. "He wants to get things right right away, because if we can get what's wrong fixed right now, we don't have to go into meetings and get it fixed for tomorrow. We can get it fixed on the field, and that's really nice."

Sock It To Me!
By None
from Colorado City, Colorado
In 2004 my husband had a hip replacement. At that time he was issued one of these sock pullers from the hospital. Now he has just had back surgery in 2013 and has to use the sock puller again. The original one was starting to wear out and then we received the catalog from Easy Comforts and were able to get the exact thing in the convenience of our home without going shopping. Great for us. Thank you!

Thank you for your patience as we work through this transition! The wheels are still turning as we work through the complications of separating ourselves from GVSU, incorporating, fundraising, and working out a contract with a new venue. As we announced on Facebook in October, we will not be in June this year due to venue availability, our tentative dates are July 31 to August 2. We will make a formal announcement as soon as the contract is finalized!
On the back of the JAFAX 19 program booklet this year, you may have noticed that the advertisement for JAFAX 20 did not include the line "At Grand Valley State University, Allendale, MI," as it has for the prior 15 years. There was a reason for that; we weren't totally sure.
We can now announce that JAFAX 20 will not be at Grand Valley State University.
We have been working with the University for the last two months to try and have one more year at GVSU, but this week we have learned that it simply won't be possible. GVSU recognizes and appreciates the value JAFAX has brought to GVSU in the past, and GVSU recognizes and appreciates the excellent job our staff have done, but it's simply too big.
This was not unexpected. We've known we were approaching the limits of what GVSU could hold for a couple years, and we have been planning for this transition. We were hoping to hold a few more years at GVSU, but our recent growth explosion (with our attendance this year topping 5000, nearly a 25% jump from last year) has moved our timetable forward.
We are grateful to GVSU for being very supportive of us for 17 excellent years. We would like to thank Fred Mooney, Bob Stoll, Julie Carbine, Janet Aubil, Dave Chapman, Mike Ashcraft, the Office of Student Life, Academic Computing and Information Technology, A/V services, the GVSU Police Department, Facilities Services, Housing, and all the other GVSU faculty and staff that have enabled this event to happen for the last 17 years.
This means a lot of things about JAFAX are going to change. More information will become available as we finalize it; stay tuned to our website, Facebook page, and forums for details about registration, pre-reg, location, hotels, etc.
The JAFAX staff have much work ahead of us. For 17 years, JAFAX has been a function of Otaku no Anime, the GVSU anime club. With the move off campus, JAFAX will have to become an independent organization, unaffiliated with Grand Valley, and we've already started this process. We had already been working with the excellent folks at Experience Grand Rapids to secure a new venue.

Intracranial pressure monitoring uses a device, placed inside the head. The monitor senses the pressure inside the skull and sends measurements to a recording device.
ICP monitoring; CSF pressure monitoring
There are three ways to monitor pressure in the skull (intracranial pressure).
The intraventricular catheter is the most accurate monitoring method.
To insert an intraventricular catheter, a hole is drilled through the skull. The catheter is inserted through the brain into the lateral ventricle. This area of the brain contains liquid (cerebrospinal fluid or CSF) that protects the brain and spinal cord.
The intracranial pressure (ICP) can at the same time as monitoring by draining fluid out through the catheter.
The catheter may be hard to get into place when the intracranial pressure is high.
This method is used if monitoring needs to be done right away. A hollow screw that is inserted through a hole drilled in the skull. It is placed through the membrane that protects the brain and spinal cord (dura mater). This allows the sensor to record from inside the subdural space.
An epidural sensor is inserted between the skull and dural tissue. The epidural sensor is placed through a hole drilled in the skull. This procedure is less invasive than other methods, but it cannot remove excess CSF.
Lidocaine or another local anesthetic will be injected at the site where the cut will be made. You will most likely get a sedative to help you relax.
Most of the time, this procedure is done when a person is in the hospital intensive care unit. If you are awake and aware, your health care provider will explain the procedure and the risks. You will have to sign a consent form.
If the procedure is done using general anesthesia , you will be asleep and pain-free. When you wake up, you will feel the normal side effects of anesthesia. You will also have some discomfort from the cut made in your skull.
If the procedure is done under local anesthesia, you will be awake. Numbing medicine will be injected to the place where the cut is to be made. This will feel a prick on your scalp like a bee sting. You may feel a tugging sensation as the skin is cut and pulled back. You will hear a drill sound as it cuts through the skull. The amount of time this takes will depend on the type of drill that is used. You will also feel a tugging as the surgeon sutures the skin back together after the procedure.
Your health care provider may give you mild pain medicines to ease your discomfort. You will not get strong pain medicines, because your doctor will want to check for signs of brain function.
This test is most often done to measure intracranial pressure. It may be done when there is a severe head injury or brain/nervous system disease. It also may be done after surgery to remove a tumor or fix damage to a blood vessel if the surgeon is worried about brain swelling.
High intracranial pressure can be treated by draining CSF through the catheter. It can also be treated by changing the ventilator settings for people who are on a respirator, or by giving certain medicines through a vein (intravenously).
Normally, the ICP ranges from 1 to 20 mm Hg.
Note: mm Hg = millimeters of mercury
Note: Normal value ranges may vary slightly among different laboratories. Talk to your doctor about the meaning of your specific test results.
High intracranial pressure means that both nervous system and blood vessel tissues are under pressure. If not treated, this can lead to permanent damage. In some cases, it can be life-threatening.

Hey, guys.
I was wondering if you could help me out with something.
As some of you may know, I am in the process of developing my own comic called 'The Acolytes'. It's taken quite some time (as well as trial and error) to develop characters and a story for them to go by, but I think I'm getting closer to actually starting this thing.
Which is where you guys come in.
I have done character designs and a profile for each of the Acolyte heroes.
Take a look at the artwork and the profiles, and let me know what you think.
First, here are the links, introducing you to the Acolyte Heroes!
New Era Outlaw
(Mind you, these are just concept sketches. I'll colour them later)
And now, the mini-survey:
1) Which character has appealed to you the most, appearance wise?
2) Which character has appealed to you the most, profile wise?
3) What would you like to see in the comic concerning the Acolytes?
4) What would you NOT like to see in the comic concerning the Acolytes?
5) Overall, who's your favorite so far?
If I get enough feedback, I'll have a good idea as to exactly how to fine tune the characters, and produce something worthwhile for you guys.
Also, feel free to leave any and all constructive comments here.
The more you comment, the more you'll help me out!
Thanks in advance,
The New Era Outlaw.

A forum dedicated to any info you can dig up on him:
For now he remains somewhat of a mystery and no one is really talking about him. Meanwhile, Gun Control is getting all the attention:
How often did Lanza play the most violent games? How did he feel about them? How did they affect him? Did they desensitize him to violence or provoke blood lust? We don't know, and most likely never will.
Did he really have Asperger's? Was he diagnosed with anything in addition to the "developmental disorder" — or was that just a palatable-sounding phrase his family and family friends used to avoid invoking scarier, more threatening terms like "mental illness"? We don't know what lay behind the extremely inward-turned behavior his classmates saw, or the murderous violence that erupted last week. Was it extreme, toxic anxiety? Paranoia? Voices? Righteous rage? We may never know.

The new Surfboard Range is online
All boards marked with the "X-Surf" stamp are ideal shapes for both kitesurfing AND surfing. We originally introduced the X-Surf concept last year with the Whip and got great feedback from riders who loved being able to travel with a single board to cover their kiting and surfing needs. In 2014, through ongoing development and feedback, we have expanded the X-Surf family. Boards marked with the "X-Surf" stamp have more volume than the kitesurf-specific boards (better paddling ability) and also operate well when relying purely on wave energy to generate speed. The Nugget doubles as a light wind kitesurf board and a smallwave-slaying surfboard. The two biggest Whips are performance hybrids perfectly suited to bridging the gap between kiting and paddling in small to medium surf. The Pro Series is the go-to board for team riders and advanced surfers in nearly all conditions. In 2014 all Directional Boards are delivered without Surfstraps and Front Footpads.
The Champions of One Eye!!!
Le Morne, the one eyed monster - Domesticated by the North Kiteboarding Wave Team!
Also the second year the KSP stopped in Mauritius and took place in epic conditions. Day 9 showed the finals at the One Eye Kite Surf Pro. The women's final saw a repeat victory from local Ninja Bichler (GER, North), dominating her home break. 3 times world champion Kirsty Jones was a bit unlucky with conditions but still managed to achieve a respectful third place and was showing her impressive hard style and beautiful barrels also in the expression session. The men's side saw underdog Patri McLaughlin (HI, North) take down reigning world champion Airton Cozzolino (ITA, North) nailing the only perfect 10 of the competition in the dying moments of the final.
In the marquee matchup of the day, the men's final promised to be the best heat of the event and it did not disappoint. The powerful Cozzolino was pitted against the barrel-hunting McLaughlin in a final that saw several lead changes and some of the most impressive tube rides of the event. McLaughlin got off to a great start with an opening wave score of 6.83 to Cozzolino's 4.5. However, Cozzolino answered back with an 8.5 to give him the lead at the midpoint of the final.
McLaughlin's never-say-die attitude finally paid off in the final moments of the heat with the event title on the line. Pulling into a seemingly un-makeable barrel, McLaughlin emerged claiming the first 10-point ride of the competition. Cozzolino scored a 7.5 late in the heat, but was unable to overtake McLaughlin for the title of the One Eye Kite Surf Pro.
"I'm so stoked right now I don't even know what to say", said the overwhelmed McLaughlin. "I got the biggest closeout barrel of my life in that final, and I am just so happy to be here."
Final Results of the One Eye Kite Surf Pro:
Men's Final:
1-Patri McLaughlin (HI, North) 17.67
2-Airton Cozzolino (ITA, North) 16.00
Men's 3rd Place Final:
3-Sebastian Ribeiro (BRA) 13.67
4-Luke McGillewie (RSA,RRD) 10.57
Women's Final:
1-Ninja Bichler (GER, North) 17.00
2-Jalou Langeree (NED, Naish) 11.53
Women's 3rd Place Final:
3-Kirsty Jones (GBR, North) 12.24
4-Ines Correia (POR, RRD) 12.23
North Kiteboarding:
1st and 2nd Men's, 1st and 3rd Women's, an amazing result for the whole team. Well done everybody!!

The Simpsons Toad
Photograph courtesy Robin Moore, ILCP
Nosing around for "lost" amphibian species in western Colombia in September, scientists stumbled across three entirely new species—including this beaked toad. "Its long, pointy, snoutlike nose reminds me of the nefarious villain Mr. Burns from The Simpsons television series," expedition leader Robin Moore said in a statement released Tuesday.
The unnamed, 0.7-inch-long (2-centimeter-long) toad is "easily one of the strangest amphibians I have ever seen," added Moore, an amphibian-conservation specialist for Conservation International.
The toad also has an odd reproductive habit: skipping the tadpole stage. Females lay eggs on the rain forest floor that hatch into fully formed toadlets.
In addition to the never before seen amphibians pictured here, the unprecedented global effort to rediscover amphibians presumed extinct—led by Conservation International and the International Union for Conservation of Nature's Amphibian Specialist Group—has yielded three species rediscoveries, including a Mexican salamander not seen since 1941, a frog from Côte d'Ivoire not seen since 1967, and a frog from Democratic Republic of the Congo not seen since 1979. (See pictures: "Ten Most Wanted 'Extinct' Amphibians.")
Published November 17, 2010
Rocket Frog

A new species of rocket frog (pictured), found in September, is less toxic—and more drably colored—than other poison dart frog species, conservationists said this week. (Related: "Toxic Frogs Get Their Poison From Mites.")
Living in and around streams, the 1.2-inch-long (3-centimeter-long) frogs carefully carry newly hatched tadpoles on their backs until they reach water, where the tadpoles complete their development.
The rocket frog and the two other new frog species found recently in Colombia were a "shot of adrenaline" for the scientific team, who had spent a fruitless week scouring Colombia's chilly cloud forests and steamy rain forests for presumed-extinct amphibians, Conservation International's Moore said in a statement.
"We definitely left on a high."
Published November 17, 2010
Red-Eyed Mystery Toad
Photograph courtesy Robin Moore, ILCP
Found in steep Colombian cloud forests in September, this new species of toad has baffled scientists. The toad's genus is still a mystery—as is the reason for its ruby-colored eyes.
"I have never seen a toad with such vibrant red eyes," Conservation International's Moore said in a statement released this week.
"This trait is highly unusual for amphibians, and its discovery offers us a terrific opportunity to learn more about how and why it adapted this way."
(Related: "New Frog Found—Has 'Striking' Color Change.")
Published November 17, 2010
New Frog Gathers No Moss
Photograph courtesy Robin Moore, ILCP
All three newfound species (pictured, the red-eyed toad in September) were active during the daytime, an unusual occurrence in amphibians, according to Conservation International.
Their daytime habits likely helped the scientists spot the new animals during the weeklong expedition.
"Finding three new species in such a short space of time," Conservation International's Moore said, "speaks to the incredibly rich biodiversity of these relatively unexplored forests and highlights their importance for conservation."
Published November 17, 2010
Fruitless Search
Photograph courtesy Robin Moore, ILCP
In September, Alonso Quevedo, president of Fundación ProAves, looks for Colombia's presumed-extinct Mesopotamia beaked toad, which was not found.
The global amphibian search comes amid a steady decline in worldwide amphibian species, in part due to freshwater habitat loss, and the usually fatal chytrid fungus. Nearly 30 percent of known amphibian species are threatened with extinction, according to Conservation International. (Read about vanishing amphibians in National Geographic magazine.)

Congratulations to the Shooting Stars! (12.28.09) Colorado Rush U8 Shooting Stars went undefeated to win the Holiday in the Bubble Tournament December 26-27th. During their first three games they played, they only allowed 2 goals against them. In the Championship Round, they met up with Real's Colorado Soccer Super Girls who were also undefeated. The Rush Shooting Stars had some "sweet moves" and won 3-0 to capture the 4v4 Championship. Excellent coaching and encouragment from coaches Dan Stanton and John Baca were instrumental in this victory. Alumni Week Concludes (12.22.09) Stephen Keel could not make the four-peat happen and David Wagenfuhr could not find his first trophy. In the end, the Hayley Marsh/Zander Dietz duo proved to be too much. It was these two who combined for the golden goal winner in the Alumni Week Finale. On behalf of the Colorado Rush Staff, thank you very much to the 80 plus players who showed up over the four day event. It is you who have helped create the best club in the country. It is you who have laid the ground work for the next set of college and professional soccer players to come through the Colorado Rush system. This Alumni Week has produced some very nice soccer, but more than that, it has been a bright and shining example of the quality people who have helped develop this club. Thank you again. And stay tuned for what's next! Day Three Alumni Week Update (12.10.09) Once again, over 40 players participated in Alumni Week matches. With one day remaining, Stephen Keel has worked the trifecta, winning all three days of competition. He'll go for the four-peat on Tuesday when Alumni Week concludes. New faces continue to come out, including Jeb Brovsky (Notre Dame) who is using Alumni Week as a bit of his off season preparation for Auxerre. Brovsky is off to France in January to train with the storied French club (and Rush partner). Coach Hart was back on track (riding Keel's coat tails) winning his second trophy of the week. Day Two of Alumni Week (12.18.09) Team Trembly (pictured) a.k.a Real Salt Lake Wannabees, took the title for day two after going "oh-for" all throughout bracket play and backing their way into the playoffs. After two days and over 5 hours of soccer, 50 plus players have been represented at Denver Sports Center. Some excellent soccer has been played with some wonderful players competing. Evidence (as pictured) is Coach Hart, one day removed from being a champion, was actually relegated to the bench. With the number of games played today, human score boards were needed, so thanks to Jordi and Britt (also pictured)! Even a visit from Crazy Santa was made today (no photo, tough to catch Santa in a photo!), complete with candy cane hand outs! What will happen next? Stay tuned for Sunday afternoon's high lights. Did we mention Mikey P's play of the day yesterday? Nut megs were afoot yesterday…right Lucas?

A special thank you to Jami Kummer for opening her doors early for the festivities. Top college players from across the country and former college players covered the field. Adding to the quality was a number of former and current pros. Sara Wagenfuhr (St. Louis) and Erika Sutton (Boston) of the WPS were both in attendance along with Steven Keel (Portland Timbers) and Todd Dunivant (LA Galaxy). Beyond our own staff members who have long since (well, not too long!) retired from the game, David Wagenfuhr of FC Dallas also joined in. Many more players are expected as the week continues. Today, Team Hart earned the title of champion! Alumni Week continues on Friday. More Honors for Angeli and Foxhoven (12.17.09) (Angeli) (Foxhoven) The awards keep coming for Jordan and Danielle.

Auxerre tie Lorient; Sit in 5th (12.14.09) After a two game losing streak, AJ Auxerre managed to get a point in a 0-0 draw at Lorient. The tie keeps Auxerre (27 points) one point ahead of Lorient in the standings and in 5th place in the league, just ahead of a slew of teams with 26 points. Both teams had several quality scoring chances throughout the game but both goal keepers came up big when called upon to keep the game scoreless. Auxerre will return to action against Valenciennes Tuesday, December 15th for a rare weekday game. The midweek matchup will have great importance as Valenciennes (26 points) sits just one point behind AJA.

The annual player combine will be held at Central Broward Regional Park in Ft. Lauderdale, Fla. Jan. 8-12, 2010. The 2010 MLS SuperDraft will be held on Thursday, Jan. 14, 2010 in Philadelphia. For more on the Combine and draft click here. Rush's Collen Warner (University of Portland) and Nick Cardenas (San Diego State University) are on this list. Warner led his team to the third round of the NCAA Tournament this year, where they were knocked out by Virginia. Warner landed himself on the All-West Coast Conference First Team for the third consecutive year. He led the West Coast Conference in points (25, 9 goals, 7 assists). Warner finishes his career at UP with 20 goals and 20 assists in 79 games. "There will be lot of good players at the combine and there will be some pressure to perform," said Warner. "Everybody will be watching and critiquing, so I definitely want to do my best. I'm just thrilled for this opportunity." As a Center Back for the Aztecs, Nick Cardenas tied for third on the team in points (9, 4 goals, 1 assist). Cardenas was selected to the All-Pac-10 First Team. He is a 3-time NSCAA All-Farwest Region pick and was the 2006 Pac-10 Freshman of the year. Rush Technical Director, Erik Bushéy said, "both Warner and Big Nick bring their own brand of special qualities to the field. They are both big time players who have the potential to be big time pros. I'm proud of them for their performances and successes during their college career and believe they will represent themselves and Rush Soccer in a very bright light during the combine (and after)." Nick and Collen were teammates at Rush and won several State Cup titles together. As U18's, they lost in the Regional final in a pk shootout. We anticipate both players to be back for Rush Alumni week Dec 17-23. Colorado Rush would like to congratulate both of these players for their selection to the MLS Combine and wish them well as they take the next step in their soccer careers.

Kiebel Reflects on Thanksgiving ODP Event (12.01.09) Maddie Kiebel who plays with the U16 Colorado Rush Nike team recently partook in the ODP Inter-Regional tournament in Florida over Thanksgiving. The event was Maddie's first as part of the Region IV ODP team. "It was a good week. It wasn't as hard physically as I had anticipated because we had some days off between games. On the field it was very competitive. Some of the best players in the country are out there so you have to step it up to play with the best," Maddie said of the week. While in Florida the Region IV team had two training sessions to get some time together on the field prior to playing games. A quality Region IV team beat Region I 3-0 to open the week then matched that score against Region III in the second game. In the last match of the week, Maddie and Region IV dropped a tough game to Region II 2-0. Despite the set back in the third game, Maddie felt she had a good week saying, "I think my game held up well with everyone. The competitive level of my team in Colorado helped me to get ready for this level of play." Maddie will be back in action this weekend when the Colorado 16's head to the ECNL Final Four Showcase in College Station, Texas. The 16's are currently 3-0 in the ECNL "A" bracket having already beat Eclipse Select (IL), Birmingham United (AL), and St. Louis Scott Gallagher (MO). This weekend they will take on Crossfire Premier (WA), CASL Spartan Elite (NC) and Mustang Fury (CA). Auxerre Fall to PSG, Streak Ends At Seven (11.29.09) A second-half goal by Jeremy Clement was enough to secure a 1-0 win for Paris Saint-Germain over AJ Auxerre on Saturday. The loss was the first for Auxerre since late August when they lost to Lyon 3-0. Clement scored in the 67th minute when he headed in a cross from Ceara for the only goal of the game. Auxerre thought they had a chance to equalize just moments later when Roy Contout was brought down by PSG defender Mamadou Sakho, but the referee ruled the foul took place outside the box. Despite the loss, Auxerre will sit atop Ligue 1 but several teams chasing Auxerre have a game left to play over the weekend. Auxerre will return home on December 6 to take on AS Nancy Lorraine. Conor Casey Interview (11.29.09) Perhaps the most notable alumnus of Colorado Rush, Conor Casey, has had a career year in many aspects with his success with the Colorado Rapids and the US National Team. Conor's Rapids suffered another disappointing season, but Conor certainly did all he could as he led the country for most of the year and finished one goal back of the MLS's top scorer this season despite playing several less games due to national team responsibilities. And with those responsibilities, Conor played a key role in securing the USA's qualification for the 2010 World Cup. Our own Adam Logan was able to sit down with Conor and get his thoughts on a few different important topics. Click here to read the interview. Rush Players Advance to Next Rounds (11.23.09) Several Rush players enjoyed success on the field this past weekend advancing further into the NCAA Tournament, including trips to their division's final four.

After an average start to the season, Auxerre have found their form of late winning seven straight and extending their unbeaten streak to 10 games. The French frontrunners have not lost a league match since late August. Their 26 league points give them the edge over Bordeaux (25) and Lyon (25) after 13 games. Against Monaco (Rush Soccer's former partner), Auxerre were led by goals late in each half by Adama Coulibaly and Delvin Ndinga. Coulibaly's goal in the 45th minute started with a free kick by Benoit Pedretti who sent a pin-point ball into the box where Coulibaly rose above the Monaco defense and headed the ball past keeper Stephane Ruffier. Despite some second half pressure from Monaco, the Auxerre defense held firm and Ndinga's goal in the 87th minute ended any hope for Monaco to walk away with a point. Auxerre will next head to Paris to take on Paris Saint-Germain on Saturday November 28th. Warner Lifts Short Handed Pilots to Opening Round Win (11.20.09) Playing on the road, a man down and trailing with 6 minutes to go in the first round of the NCAA tournament, Rush player Collen Warner propels Portland into the second round by scoring two goals.

Rush Captures Two State Titles (10.26.09) UPDATED on 10/29/09: Please see the below links to view video highlights of each game On a cold, windy day in Ft Collins, the Colorado Rush captured two state titles (GU16 and GU 17) and finished as runners' up in another (GU15). The U15 girl's final was the first game of the day. In a rematch of last year's Cup Final which Rush won convincingly, the Nike Girls lost 0-1 to Real National. Rush had the wind at their back in the first half and much of the play in Real's end, but failed to create many quality scoring opportunities. The best chance Rush had in the first half came from a low cross cut back to Havana McElvaine. Her one time shot from 10 yards out went agonizingly just wide. Real scored the lone goal of the game midway through the first half on a shot from distance that found its way across the goal line. Rush did not create a ton of dangerous chances in the second half, but did have a golden opportunity late in the game. With 5 minutes left, after some wonderful work and commitment to get players forward and in front of goal, a great chance was created but the shot from close range sailed just over the goal. Please click here to watch video highlights of this game. (above, GU16 Nike after their win) The GU16 Nike team defeated Real National 2-0, on their way to their 4th consecutive state title. Rush dominated play from the opening whistle. They controlled possession most of the first half and created a number of quality scoring opportunities. The first good scoring chance came from a well struck volley from Jessica Clanton that was saved by the Real goal keeper. Midway through the first half, Lindsay Horan turned her defender in the corner, cut inside, and hit a shot headed right for the upper corner of the goal. The Real goal keeper made a brilliant diving save to keep the game tied at zeros. Moments later, Horan found herself behind the Real defense and 1v1 with the Real goal keeper. She calmly slotted the ball into the lower right hand corner of the net to give Rush a 1-0 half time lead. The second half saw Rush defend a bit more than they had the first half, but never really gave Real any dangerous scoring chances. With about fifteen minutes left to play, Horan beat 3 Real defenders before being tripped up in the penalty box. Lindsay took the ensuing penalty kick and buried it in the lower left hand side of the goal. Please click here to watch video highlights of this game. (above, GU17 Nike after their win) The 17 Nike Girls entered their state title match for the first time as defending champions. These girls have suffered through injury all season long with the most recent of injuries coming just three days prior to the final. But it would take more than an injury report, a cold and windy day, and a fired up opponent to stop the Nike girls on this day. The Rush were against the wind in the first half but only coneded a couple half chances to Pride (same opponent the Rush girls beat 2-1 in last year's final). It was against the wind though when Pride struck first to take a 1-0 lead. A short time later, Kelsey Loupee answered from a corner kick by Abby Rolf which was redirected by Hayley Stading. When Pride went ahead 2-1, no heads hung low, rather, the Rush girls answered again. Maddie Yoswa drove a rocket corner kick in and Kaitlyn Bassett headed home the all important equalizer. 2-2. When Juliana Grover finished a cross swung in by Yoswa (for her second assist) after some great work by Kelly McGrath, the Rush Girls were rolling. And with a moment of absolute class, power and precision, Annie Kunz sealed the deal with a left footed bomb from 25 yards out. 4-2! The Rush Girls passed every test thrown at them, including the test of character. This was a wonderful win for the back to back state champions.

COACH TONY BEARDEN WILL BE MISSED! (10.19.09) (above: Coach Tony, left) Tony Bearden began coaching the Dolphins, a girl's developmental team in 2005. The majority of this original team still plays together on an U10 Option One team. These girls remain together and love soccer because of Coach Tony. Coach Tony spent countless hours studying the game to teach his girls because he loved coaching.

U12 Nike Girls Race for the Cure (10.15.09) On October 6, 2009, the U12 Nike Girls had no game while older teams played in the State Cup tournament. The Nike Girls didn't take the day off, but took a chance to do something good. A group of them, along with their moms and sisters formed a team and ran in the Susan G. Komen Race for the Cure, a 5K race to raise money to fight breast cancer. They put on pink t-shirts with a big blue Colorado Rush logo that read "Nike Girls For The Cure" and lined up in two groups at 6:30 a.m. Some walked and some ran, even with some of those running posting decent times. But more important than the times was the money raised to fight breast cancer. In addition to the team's registrations, a couple members of the team were able to raise several hundred dollars to fight breast cancer. The highlight of the race was crossing the finish line knowing that you had accomplished a successful race and that you did it for a great cause AND DOING IT IN A RUSH UNIFORM. One Nike Girl's little sister said the highlight was loading bags up with swag (stuff we all get). Hopefully, this is the beginning of a Rush tradition and we can show up in more numbers next year and show that The Rush cares.
