Well, we’re on the home stretch of the Fall 2008 semester. Actually, I believe there’s only four weeks left! It’s crazy how fast it’s gone, but I’ve been plenty busy. Track and Field is fully underway and we have our first meet in just a few weeks at MSU-Mankato. I’ve also been busy with classes, working for the Theater & Video Production staffs here on campus, and even occasionally writing for The Sword this semester. Even though it’s been a good semester, I’m anxiously awaiting WINTER BREAK!

The Concordia University intramural football season is now complete. On Sunday October 19th, four teams competed in the playoff finals to determine the overall champion. My team, the undefeated “Trackstars,” were going against the increasingly dominant “Why So Serious?” team. The game was rough and featured several heated arguments, but in the end only one team could be crowned the 2008 CU Intramural Football champs. The score remained tight until the final five minutes of play, when my team pulled ahead to take the title. The winning team consists of myself (captain Andy Wyss), fellow senior Tre Sayles, juniors Adam LeMay and Brian Kohlman, sophomores Kevin Koglin, Britt Bickert, and Andy Chaussee, DCE Intern (and my wife) Jayme Wyss, and alumni Joseph “Slim” Amundson. It was really great getting to play with all those guys. I love them all and wish the best of luck to everyone as the CU student body continues a successful intramural year.
