KSC Women's field hockey team is on a roll

Hi everyone it's me Lhens again and for this sports topic I wanted to talk to you guys about a team who is really clicking on all cylenders right now, and that would be the women's field hockey team. They have realed off three straight wins and are probably the best team on campus. They are playing well as a unit and they are winning games all while a couple of the their players are reaching milestones in their playing careers here at Keene State College. In the last three games not only have they won but Erin Dallas has set the all time record for assists, and Carley Benning has reached the 100 point milestone becoming only the seventh player to do so in women's field hockey here at KSC. Their last victory came against a very good falcons team that entered the game against the Owls with an 11-3 record, and a team that had won six straight games before playing the Owls. Carley helped the team by scoring her 18 goal continuing her fantastic season and Vikki protected the net by stopping eight shots. Right now the women's field hockey team are not only a great team but a confident one at that, and I believe it will be hard for anyone to break their momentum. Coming up the Owls will host New England College and I expect their run of success to continue.

Let the madness for the KSC Basketball season begin

Hello Everybody it's me Lhens Juste and today I will be giving my thoughts on Midnight Madness. Midnight Madness will be taking place in the Spaulding gym on Friday October 23rd. It sure to be an exiting event here at Keene State College, everybody is excited to go see it and so am I.
Other than Pumkin Fest there is no other event that sturs up as much talk and anticipation as midnight madness does and rightfully so. It has a long running tradition and students have the chance of winning all sots of different prizes that they can go home with. No other event at Keene State is quite like it.
On top of the prizes, if that doesn't excite people to come to the event, students will get the opportunity to watch the men and women's basketball teams perform in both a shooting contest and a slam dunk contest.
The event is so exciting that it makes students who would normally go home for the weekend stay an extra day just to see the festivities take place. I for one think that midnight madness will be a fantastic event to go watch, and I predict that a good time will be had by all the students who decide to attend.

Soccer team surging despite loss

Hello everybody it's me Lhens again and today I am going to talk to you guys about a sports topic that has been on my mind as of late. The topic I'm refering to is the great play of the men's soccer team They are clicking on all cylinders and proving to be a really tough team to beat. After losing to Babson in a dissapointing loss they reeled off two straight wins all while winning five out of their last six games. The goalie Peter Kersker has played very well and they've gotten great play out of their two young freshmen stars Shawn Shand and Joe Senecal. They are playing well as a unit and they are showing how good of a team they can be.
I know they lost yesterday's game to Umass Darthmouth but they stayed in the game against a very good team and that is something they can build on for the next game. Even with the loss I like the direction this team is headed in. If they can play to their strength and play hard, teams will have a tough go against them every time out. I feel that is the next game they will come out playnig harder and it will ultimately lead them to a victory.

Hi everyone it's me Lhens again this week I wanted to talk about an incredible story that is taking place here at Keene State College. The Story I'm reffering to is the story of Erin Dallas. for some people this story in not new but for those of you who have not heard her story yet, it will both amaze and astound you. Erin is a field hockey player here at Keene State who came back from a post surgical infection that could have ended her field hockey days for good. After being being away from the game she loved and having people dought whether she would come back she persevered and is now excelling at the sport she loves to play. Her story is inspring and something you would only see in movies. One thing is for sure whether she plays well or not she already won. If anyone wants to hear more about her story I will be talking it in the Keene Online News I would advise anybody who hasn't heard of her incredible story to go read it.
