The weekend of Sept. 23-25 was a mixed one in Lion Athletics, with the soccer team winning one of their two games and the volleyball team losing away it. Left the Lions share of success for the cross country team to balance out the weekend.

Friday, Sept. 23, the Lions soccer team won their battle with the Angelo State Rams 3-2 coming from a 1-1 tie against Eastern New Mexico. Freshmen Jade Bell scored two goals and freshmen Cadie Annett scored the other goal sending the Lions to victory.

The soccer teams luck ran out against Incarnate word the following Sunday Sept. 25, losing the game 3-0.

Volleyball fell in the same way to Texas A&M University- Kingsville, 3-0 at the Javelinas' home in Kingsville, Texas.

Cross country was the saving grace for Lion Athletics over the weekend, coming home with 6 top ten finishes. On the men's team, Isaac Chelimo placed third, Everett Wilder fifth, Fredrick Kipsang sixth and Raymond Mata tenth. The womens team noted two top ten finishes out of Brooke Farris at sixth and Caroline Cotsakis at eighth.
