The new Discovery Channel reality series, The Devils Ride, is causing a lot of controversy among viewers. Some are adamant that the show could not be real; others are taking a more open approach, giving the show—and the Laffing Devils—a chance to prove themselves. Here on Huliq, many readers have chimed in with their opinions. An anonymous reader got the comment ball rolling on a recent article:
What respectable MC airs their Mc business with the world on national television? Also, if you listen and watch what goes on in the first airing, they contradict themselves relative to membership/tension etc. Lastly, the wives of the members go out for dinner in public with cameras rolling for national TV and they (or Prospect Charles) worry about some paparazzi taking pics of them? If you don't want your pic taken, why are you on TV? Also, I wonder if they realize that Red and White is the colors of another well known worldwide MC that has been around for over 50 years. I am curious to know if these TV bikers got permission to use those two colors and center logo from the worldwide MC that owns them?
A lot of questions, all pointing, of course, to "fake." Others, however, were less critical of the show, such as this anonymous commenter:
Hey they're cool ! All M/C;s don't have to be 1%ers. They're there with permission. These guys are just in it for the Brotherhood of riding with friends. A step up from your local Hog chapter.
Also, Rob said:
Maybe they really are just a club who likes to ride motorcycles. It sounds like people here are taking it too seriously. You don't have to live like something out of a movie to have a group of people who ride together.
Is a Cop-MC Prez Marriage Acceptable?
An interesting issue that arose in this comment stream was the suggestion that one of the Laffing Devils is married to a police officer—something that readers adamantly say would never happen in a real MC (motorcycle club).
Any MC associated as closely with law enforcement ie.. wife of a prez...is definitely not welcomed near or around our club.
I am 55 and been riding since I was 15 only a ama riding club would allow a person with a cop in the family esp the president to have a cop for a wife what a &^%*($^ joke.
Others, however, seemed to think having a cop in an MC could be a benefit, like Zrfunited, who still agreed, overall that the Laffing Devils were likely fake:
Most likely their antics are contrived for television. Like I said, I most likely won't watch it. Don't really care to watch a bunch of folks playing at the fantasy. … I would actually venture to say that a wife or girlfriend who was a cop would be a great benefit to an outlaw.
It was unclear, overall, just what readers felt defined an MC, but those ideas were clearly polarized as well. While some debated on whether or not an MC would ever allow itself to be associated with a police officer, other anonymous comments focused on the other possibilities of being in a MC:
Not all clubs are created to perpetuate scum, hate and discontent of all those around. Some of us are actually here to really help others.
You are exactly right. There are no rules to an MC that's what keeps everyone guessing. If their were specific rules it would not be an MC.
And, Sheryl agreed, saying:
Real clubs have raised more monies for St. Jude's , cancer treatment , etc., than our govermment or any private org.
Whatever the definition of a "real" MC, one thing is clear: As long as The Devils Ride is hitting the airwaves at the Discovery Channel, it is going to be stirring up controversy, particularly the question that has yet to be anwered: Fake or not fake?
Stay tuned.
The Devils Ride airs tonight on the Discovery Channel at 10 p.m. E/P.

Its been 34 long years since Beaver River boys basketball fans have been this abuzz about their beloved Beavers.
Not since the Bob Giordano-coached team of 1979 won the Section 3 Class B title and advanced to the state playoffs have Beaver fans felt this excited about the teams prospects of making a state title bid. That year, a veteran Beaver River team came up short of making the state final four, losing to eventual state champion Sidney of Section 4 in the regionals.
This season, with another veteran-laden club, coach Lynn Petzoldt, a 1977 Beaver River graduate, takes his Beavers (21-1) into another confrontation with a Section 4 team with a shot at making the schools first trip to Glens Falls.
Moravia (20-2), the Section 4 Class C champion, will provide the opposition Saturday in the state Class C quarterfinals at 11 a.m. at Onondaga Community Colleges SRC Arena.
Petzoldt has tried to make this week seem just like any other during the season.
But he realizes that with whats at stake, its hard not to get caught up in the enthusiasm.
Its kind of like a dream, Petzoldt said. To still have a chance at winning a state title is all you can ask for. But these kids havent allowed anything to bother them all season, and I dont think it will start now.
The pressure of winning another game to make the final four wont be any different than the pressure to win a Section 3 title after coming close last season.
Weve been hearing it all season, about how it will be disappointing if we dont win the sectional title, Beaver River scoring leader Samuel Widrick said after last Sundays 68-65 win over Mohawk in the Class C title game at the Carrier Dome. The next game will be big, but no bigger than the last four. Its a pretty loose team, and nothing seems to bother us.
Petzoldt said this club, which includes nine seniors, never gets too high or low. Their whole demeanor is of being poised and able to handle the pressure.
The Beavers have so many offensive weapons, it makes them difficult to defend.
Widrick (16.9 points per game) and senior center Alex Hall (16.8 ppg) are the main go-to guys. But Petzoldt has also received key contributions seniors Tarren Farney (7.5 ppg), Zack Steiner (9.1 ppg), Trevor Lehman and Adam Schneider.
Hall has really improved on the low block, using his strength and agility not only to score, but to rebound and block shots.
While Widrick has made a team-leading 49 3-pointers, he has become more aggressive driving to the basket in recent games.
Farney, who has hit 38 3-pointers off the bench, and Steiner, with 23 3-pointers, make it impossible to double-team Widrick on the perimeter.
For Lehman, especially, the season has been a bonus. He tore the ACL in his knee the first football game of the season and was scheduled for surgery. But he came to Petzoldt and told him he wanted to play basketball because it was going to be a special season. So he postponed the operation.
Hes not the same player, physically, Petzoldt said. But hes still a valuable part of our rotation, and he has a knack for making big plays.
Asked after Beaver River beat Tully for the Class C-1 title if it was all worth it, Lehman smiled and said, Its been even more than I ever dreamed of.
As for Moravia, Petzoldt said, People tell me they are a mirror-image of us. They like to press and play a lot of zone. At this point of the season, every team you play is really good, so execution is always the key.
The Beaver River fan base will also be out in force again. In fact, because Beaver River had such a large following Sunday at the Section 3 Class C championship at the Carrier Dome (an estimated crowd of 2,500), this weeks game was switched from Binghamton High School to SRC Arena, which holds 4,000 fans, to accommodate the expected throng.
After discussions with Section 4 earlier this week, it was decided that the gym and parking at Binghamton High School was insufficient to hold the Beaver River throng even though that section was to be the host site.
Its amazing the support weve received, Petzoldt said. Every where weve gone, our fans have come along. We wouldnt be where we are without them.

ST's SLLIMM™ small low-loss intelligent molded module family of IPMs combines optimized silicon chips, integrated in three main inverter blocks:
Power stage
– Short-circuit rugged IGBTs
– Freewheeling diodes
Driving network
– High-voltage gate drivers
– Discrete gate resistors
– Integrated bootstrap diodes
Protection and optional features
– Smart shutdown function
– Comparators for fault protection against overcurrent and short circuit
– NTC sensor for temperature control
– Op-amps for advanced current sensing
– Deadtime, interlocking function and undervoltage lockout
They are available in the DBC-based SDIP package offering extremely low thermal resistance with optimum quality level and cost effectiveness or in the full molded 3.5 cm² SLLIMM-nano package (NDIP) which is ideal for small, built-in motor applications up to 100 W in free air.
SLLIMM™-nano modules
ST's new SLLIMM-nano family extends the portfolio of SLLIMM intelligent power modules for appliance motor drivers. SLLIMM is a single module that connects directly between the central MCU and the motor. Compared to conventional drivers that typically require more than 30 individual components, ST's modular solution reduces costs by simplifying design and significantly reducing component count while saving space, improving reliability and lowering EMI. The modules do not require a heatsink for most of the loads they target in home appliances, so they are also ideal for small built-in motor applications where assembly space is limited.

Sometimes things move pretty quickly around here – almost too quickly to catch up and fully appreciate what has transpired.
One day we're ushering in the winter sports season while the high school Super Bowls have yet to be contested. The non-stop nature extends to all seasons and sports, and we here at Blackstone Valley Sports have no choice but to hop aboard the next train or run the risk of being left behind.
The fact that there is little lag time between seasons anymore isn't lost on the players, coaches and scribes. Busy times always seem to be en vogue, indeed, and I know I speak for the rest of my colleagues in that we wouldn't have it any other way. We certainly enjoy what we do, a service hopefully not lost on the readership we so humbly serve.
Sometimes, though, you would like the opportunity to catch your breath to fully understand the totality what just transpired before delving into the next series of challenges. With the passage of another calendar year just a few days away, now appears as good a time as any to look back on what a busy 2010 it was.
What follows is a series of reflections designed to close the books on one 12-month interval and sound the gong for a new one that will undoubtedly try and write its own unique storyline. Memo to 2011: you've got some serious living up to do to match or approach the benchmark 2010 set.
The No. 1 creed of every reporter is to remain objective. You are not the story, the subject you're penning about is. That's all well and good, but maybe to the surprise of everyone, we're human just like you. We have feelings, and every now and again we take on an assignment that has the potential of tugging at our hearts.
Two such episodes occurred under my watch in 2010. The first was in February, when 2009 Tolman High graduate Kyle J. Coutu was killed while proudly defending this country's freedom in Afghanistan. Pfc. Coutu died on a Thursday, and over the weekend a series of somber events took place to recognize the contributions the three-season athlete made.
The one that raised the hairs on the back of my neck took place at Lynch Arena. There the Tolman hockey program held miniature flags during the national anthem while two players gripped each end of an
American flag that directly faced the home team's bench. Coutu's football number was retired on Thanksgiving Eve, but to me, witnessing this proud display of patriotism in person helped me realize this: I'm standing here because of the brave service someone like Kyle Coutu provided.
The second episode unfolded the October day we learned that Ben Mondor passed away. Two stories were assigned to me, one a reaction piece from former and current PawSox players, while the other was called an obit piece that would anchor the coverage on the front page of the news section.
My reactionary piece was done and sent by the time the PawSox staged a 5 p.m. press conference at McCoy Stadium. Sitting at a table were Mike Tamburro and Lou Schwechheimer, two longtime team executives who in many ways were molded in the image of Mondor. You could tell Tamburro was hurting as the team president had trouble conveying what Mondor meant not just to the PawSox, but to the community the product served.
"I think his legacy drives all of us," said Tamburro before his voice trailed off. Tears soon appeared and a few moments were needed before he could continue his train of thought. "He's driven us for 34 years, and it's not going to end now. This operation will continue to grow and flourish because of Ben and his memory."
It was those unabashed words by Tamburro that helped put into focus what Mondor meant for my childhood. Going to McCoy Stadium was a summertime ritual that ranked up there with heading to the beach. Professional baseball in this state flourished because of the magic he weaved, and though Mondor is gone, the memories he helped foster won't be emptied out of the memory bank anytime soon.
It's May and I'm at the "fake" Garden for the Bruins-Flyers playoff series. I'm there to do a story about Woonsocket lad Brian Boucher, who had risen from the ashes to become Philadelphia's starting goaltender. His decision to leave Mount St. Charles with two years of eligibility remaining to play junior hockey in Canada was one Mounties associate head coach Dave Belisle called, "an incredible opportunity because it's an incredible breeding ground."
A turnaround slap shot by Boston's Milan Lucic eluded Boucher and broke a third-period tie with 2:57 left, giving the Bruins a 3-2 win and a 2-0 series lead (No need to relive how the series turned out). Of course now I'm wondering how willing Boucher will be to talk about his hometown roots. Getting bombarded about how Lucic's game-winner eluded him is one thing. Reflecting about days of skating around Adelard Arena is another matter probably best reserved away from the heat of competition.
To his credit Boucher was fine, as we chatted while making his way to the team bus. I probably could have asked him a thousand questions, but the two minutes I had forced me to narrow things down considerably. The quotes Boucher gave helped color the story with his take, a good sign that dismisses the notion that there's never a good time to talk to a professional athlete — not even after surrendering a goal in the Stanley Cup playoffs.
McCoy Stadium became known as Fenway South thanks to a high number of Red Sox rehabbers who made pit stops during 2010. The presence of Josh Beckett, Dustin Pedroia, Daisuke Matsuzaka, Jacoby Ellsbury, Jason Varitek and others gave locals a chance to see their favorite players at a fraction of what they would have to pay on Yawkey Way.
The one short-lived PawSox who stood out was Mike Lowell. The 2007 World Series MVP arrived at McCoy in late July feeling healthy, but perhaps not professionally happy. Can't blame the guy for feeling not wanted after Boston had been rumored to trade or possibly release him.
What undoubtedly helped ease Lowell's pain was the warm embrace he received from the McCoy Faithful. In fact, it might have been the loudest reception of all the rehabbers who passed by Pawtucket on their back to Boston. A crowd of 10,142 showered Lowell with applause each time his was up and gave him a standing ovation after he was lifted for a pinch runner in the 10th inning.
You can never say that PawSox fans aren't appreciative, not after the treatment they gave Lowell.
A foul tip that came on a 3-2 offering, with the bases loaded and two outs. That's how close Cumberland National was to advancing out of the New England Regionals and to the Little League World Series. The foul tip was squeezed by the catcher for Connecticut's Fairfield American, the squad which held on for a 1-0 win.
You would that think such a heartbreaking ending would lead to the players feeling down in the dumps, yet the sight of the Cumberland National team sporting smiles not long after the game was over captured the true spirit of that August week they spent in Bristol, Conn.
"They're crying right now, but they'll be talking about this for the rest of their lives," said CNLL assistant coach Dan "Rocky" Baldelli, the father of you-know-who. "They'll have smiles on their faces; that's all that matters because it's all about the kids."
Speaking of you-know-who, Rocco Baldelli took time from his comeback bid to sit in the stands and watch his dad and younger brother Dante pursue Little League immortality. All of the Cumberland National players listed Rocco as their favorite ballplayer when the lineups were introduced to the TV audience, something he admits meant a great deal to him personally.
"It's very touching and is one of those things in life and makes you feel good to hear something like that," said Baldelli. "I'm sure they each have their other favorite players. My little brother is a huge Albert Pujols fan, but for them to actually say that, it makes me smile."
There are a few images from the boys' basketball season that jump out. One is seeing St. Raphael head coach Tom "Saar" Sorrentine pump his fists a la Pete Carroll after upending perennial power Bishop Hendricken for the first time in ages in February. "Probably since when (son T.J. Sorrentine) was playing," he admitted afterwards.
The vibrant atmosphere at the James W. Donaldson Memorial Gymnasium the February night Shea and Tolman duked it out for first place was certainly a refreshing sight. Too many games around these parts are played with gyms barely half full. You couldn't say that on that particular night on Exchange Street, as Tolman athletic director John Scanlon had to turn people away. Wish that kind of jam-packed scene would appear more than once a year.
Finally, the poise under pressure Central Falls' Antonio Mena showed during the Division III title game will always be remembered by this scribe. Mena was fouled with no time on the clock, needing to hit both free throws to send what was a pulsating contest with Johnston into overtime.
Mena made the first free throw with no trouble, prompting a timeout by Johnston. As the Warriors huddled around head coach Brian Crookes, Mena was down to his knees, turning the scorer's table at URI's Ryan Center into his own sacristy. His hands tightly clenched, Mena calmly made his way to the free throw line, receiving last minute advice from teammate and good friend Rob Alers.
"I was looking for a little help," admitted Mena.
The second freebie touched nothing but net as C.F. would go on to a 76-73 win. For a city plagued by negative headlines throughout 2010, Mena along with the rest of the Warriors helped everyone forget all the tumult for one glorious afternoon.
"I wasn't going to end my high school career without a win," said Alers.
We could probably ramble on, but space dictates we wrap things up. Don't feel slighted if something wasn't highlighted. Chances are our sports department gave it proper attention when the time was appropriate, and we shall continue to do so when the situation presents itself in 2011.

The Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA) is a civil rights law that gives you the right to ask for changes where policies, practices or conditions exclude or disadvantage you. As of January 26, 1992, public entities and public accommodations must ensure that individuals with disabilities have full access to and equal enjoyment of all facilities, programs, goods and services.
The ADA borrows from Section 504 of the Rehabilitation Act of 1973. Section 504 prohibits discrimination on the basis of disability in employment and education in agencies, programs and services that receive federal money. The ADA extends many of the rights and duties of Section 504 to public accommodations such as restaurants, hotels, theaters, stores, doctors' offices, museums, private schools and child care programs. They must be readily accessible to and usable by individuals with disabilities. No one can be excluded or denied services just because he/she is disabled or based on ignorance, attitudes or stereotypes.
Does the ADA Apply to People with Asthma and Allergies?
Yes. In both the ADA and Section 504, a person with a disability is described as someone who has a physical or mental impairment that substantially limits one or more major life activities, or is regarded as having such impairments. Breathing, eating, working and going to school are "major life activities." Asthma and allergies are still considered disabilities under the ADA, even if symptoms are controlled by medication.
The ADA can help people with asthma and allergies obtain safer, healthier environments where they work, shop, eat and go to school. The ADA also affects employment policies. For example, a private preschool can not refuse to enroll children because giving medication to or adapting snacks for students with allergies requires special staff training or because insurance rates might go up. A firm can not refuse to hire an otherwise qualified person solely because of the potential time or insurance needs of a family member.
In public schools where policies and practices do not comply with Section 504, the ADA should stimulate significant changes. In contrast, the ADA will cause few changes in schools where students have reliable access to medication, options for physical education, and classrooms that are free of allergens and irritants.
How Will the ADA Work?
In most cases, employees and employers, consumers and businesses, and administrators and students will work together to improve conditions and remove barriers to promote equal access and full inclusion.
Marie Trottier, Harvard University's Administrator of Disability Services, explains that her role includes educating nonallergic managers, colleagues and coworkers about the needs of people with environmental sensitivities. She also trains staff in education and employment policies, benefits and procedures.
"Changes depend as much on interpersonal consideration as they do on legal rights," she says. "It shouldn't be uncommon for people with asthma and allergies to get the same respect for their needs as people with more visible disabilities."
When Ms. Trottier arranges for accommodations in offices, classrooms and student housing, she considers the nature of the disability and the specifics of each situation. She might install an air conditioner or arrange for an office with a window that opens. She has relocated a microwave oven and reorganized office spaces to help people with allergies avoid cooking odors.
Employees might need prior notice of renovation or lawn care projects so they can modify their schedules to avoid the irritants and allergens.
Professors may ask students not to wear scented products to class. Students affected by dust, paper fibers, or ink can have someone borrow library materials for them or they can use an on-line computer system. Ms. Trottier says that "all of these options for students and employees require time and energy, flexibility and creativity, more so than money." A sign in her office underscores her point, "Attitudes are the real disabilities."
Making the ADA Work for You
If you or your child would like consideration due to asthma or allergies, speak with a school administrator, manager, employer, human specialist or disabilities service coordinator. He or she should know the procedure for collecting necessary information and planning appropriate changes, aids or services. You can call on a variety of sources for advice and creative practical ideas.
Under Section 504, public schools and programs cannot avoid their responsibility by claiming to have limited funds or resources. Nor can they impose a "disparate impact" on people with disabilities. The ADA requires public accommodations to make changes, except in cases where an "undue burden" would result.
The law does not define "undue burden." It depends on the organization's size and the real costs of the changes. The business or program must show that it properly assessed the individual's needs and tried to find the necessary .
Don't be Afraid to Speak Up
The ADA prohibits retaliation, harassment, or coercion against individuals who exercise their rights or assist others in doing so. If you feel you have been treated unfairly, you may file a complaint with the U.S. Attorney General who refers complaints to the appropriate agency. The Attorney General can bring lawsuits to seek money damages and civil penalties in cases of general public importance, or where there is a "pattern or practice" of discrimination.
Individuals can also file a private suit to get a court order requiring a business or program to make necessary changes and to pay attorney's fees. Other remedies may include reinstatement in your job and back pay.
The ADA is Evolving
Court decisions and rulings will slowly define how the ADA will affect us. The real momentum for change will come as we work creatively together to promote the inclusive attitudes and environments that fulfill the promise of the ADA for ourselves and our children.

I'd like to say in retrospective, I'm not sure why DD made the trade for Mike Morse. He's not playing everyday, he wasn't hitting when Baltimore acquired him, there were plenty of capable DH candidates by the time he was in an Orioles uniform. He's been terrible, and making a trade on the assumption that the player will break out of his slump is quite ridiculous. Mark Reynolds, Mark Reynolds, Mark Reynolds, Mark Reynolds I'm pretty sure signing a hitter on the assumption he'll break out of his slump is much smarter than trading for a player on that assumption.
I'm also not sure how the Rays can recieve David Dejesus for Matt Spann, while Baltimore is forced to give away Xavier Avery for Mike Morse.

Fire destroys vacant house in Washington
The state police fire marshal's office is investigating a fire that broke out about 4 a.m. Friday and destroyed an abandoned house at 456 Broad St., Washington.
City fire Chief Linn Brookman said firefighters arrived three minutes after a neighbor called 911, but the blaze was raging at that point. Gas service to the house had been shut off, but electrical power was still on.
Brookman called the fire suspicious. He said firefighters were at the site for four hours, and there were no injuries.

(Dec 11, 2012) On December 5, 2012, an amendment to article 286 of Taiwan's Criminal Code was published in the Gazette of the Office of the President. The amendment expands the scope of child abuse violations that can be criminally prosecuted and increases relevant penalties. (Amendment to Criminal Law [in Chinese], 7061 THE GAZETTE OF THE OFFICE OF THE PRESIDENT (Dec. 5, 2012) [click on "PDF" to view full text of amendment].)
According to the newly amended article, a person who abuses a minor under the age of 16 or who by other means acts in a manner that will impair the mental and physical health or natural development of such a minor will be sentenced to imprisonment for up to five years. (
The previous provision criminalized physical harm only, and did not punish impairment of mental health and natural development. Furthermore, the new provision punishes actions that will cause impairment rather than those that have already caused impairment as the previous provision did, which appears to mean that the law now focuses on such actions themselves without requiring the result of the actions as a condition to constitute the crime. (
People found guilty of seeking profits through child abuse will be sentenced to imprisonment for at least five years and a fine of up to NT$3 million (about US$103,200), a large increase over the NT$1,000 previously specified. (

How do you put together a scouting report on the Copenhagen girls basketball team?
Opposing coaches might as well decide who to focus on by playing eeny-meeny-miney-mo, or throwing 10 names in a hat and seeing who comes up.
The top-seeded Golden Knights depth and scoring balance were on full display Monday night at Jefferson Community College as they outlasted No. 3 Alexandria for a 48-28 victory in the Frontier League D Division championship game.
Copenhagen improved to 14-3 and increased its winning streak to nine games as it prepares to enter the Section 3 playoffs. It hasnt played in a game decided by single digits in more than a month.
Seniors Cassidy ODonnell and Logan Wheeler scored nine points apiece to lead Copenhagen, which last won the playoff title in 2011.
Miranda Allen, Erika Eddy and Brianna Muncy added six points apiece.
I remember some previous years when weve had the star, and then the star goes out or gets a box-and-1 (defense) played on them and gets shut down, then the whole team shuts down, Copenhagen coach Natalie Scott said. Here, who are you going to play thats going to stop this team in that fashion? Any of these 10 girls can be the high scorer on any given night.
Each team played fast and physical in a close first half. The game was tied at 12 after the first quarter and the Golden Knights led by two at halftime.
Then, Copenhagens depth started to show as it slowly pulled away, outscoring Alexandria 28-10 in the second half overall and 15-3 in the fourth quarter.
Theyre a good team and they played well. Alexandria coach Dave Hollis said. We played with them for the first half, but we just ran out of gas.
Copenhagen was able to play pressure defense to the final buzzer, playing tight on the ball handler as soon as they crossed half court. They held the Purple Ghosts to just 2 of 17 shooting in the second half.
We definitely stepped up our defense in the second half, and our offense just came from that, ODonnell said.
Overall, Copenhagen received 20 points from its bench while Alexandrias bench provided a point on a total of five shot attempts.
I dont lose a level of intensity or a level of skill interchanging five for five, Scott said. On a court like this, when they dont have the subs, eventually you wear them down a little bit, and I think that was the key.
Copenhagen has had seven different players lead them in scoring this season, and its top eight scorers average between three and nine points per game.
If somebodys not on one night, its definitely good to have so many others that can pick up the slack, Wheeler said.
The Golden Knights were able to avenge their only divisional loss, which came to Alexandria on Dec. 12.
Lorraine Beard and Rachael Calhoun scored 10 and seven points, respectively, to lead Alexandria (9-9).
Sectional pairings will be released on Wednesday. Scott believes her team is likely to receive the third seed in Class D, behind New York Mills (17-0) and Oriskany (15-3).
Alexandria, which has lost five of its last six games, is expected to be seeded somewhere in the middle of the pack.

Monday, October 05, 2009MACON, Ga. - Preseason Player of the Year Alex Kelly lifted Lipscomb to two road wins and the first 9-0 start seen in Atlantic Sun volleyball since ETSU in 2006 to earn the fourth Player of the Week award of her career, the conference office announced on Monday.
In a pair of road contests, Kelly, the reigning A-Sun Player of the Year, helped the Lady Bisons extend their regular-season conference win streak to 14. On Friday in Lipscomb's 3-2 win at ETSU, the junior from Kansas City, Mo., registered a double-double with 16 kills and 19 digs.
One day later in Buies Creek, N.C., Kelly set a team season-high with 25 kills in a 3-1 win at Campbell in the A-Sun Match of the Week. She added 12 digs and also set Gore Arena highs for kills, total attacks (51), and points 28.5. The marketing major leads the conference and ranks 13th in the nation in kills per set at 4.47.
The Atlantic Sun Conference is an 11-member league committed to Building Winners for Life. The A-Sun stands for achievement with integrity in both the academic and athletic arenas, with a focus on the balance between the two for our student-athletes.
This release was provided by the Atlantic Sun Conference.
