Veteran Men’s Tennis Team Geared Up for 2011 Campaign Despite having just seven players on the roster, the Bridgewater Eagles men's tennis team returns an abundance of talent and veteran leadership as the 2011 Spring season approaches. Bridgewater returns five of the top six players from the ladder in 2009-10, but lost its No. 1 singles player and career singles wins leader, Chris Radke, due to graduation. "It's definitely tough losing a player who is a solid number one, but this is a situation that we're accustomed to, so it doesn't affect us as much. But everyone will have to bump up a spot, and fill the gaps," said head The Eagles will be without the services of career singles wins leader coach Conor Smith. Chris Radke in 2011 Last season, the Eagles struggled at times in doubles play but generally controlled singles action to roll to a 13-6 record, including a 7-2 mark in the ODAC. Then-sophomore Brent Floyd was outstanding for the Eagles running his singles record to 21-5 last season, setting a new single season school record in the process. Maryland native Peter Hawkins ran off a string of seven straight wins to open his rookie season. Bridgewater returns 93 singles wins from a year ago, and brings back a group that is expected to show no fall off from last year's outstanding season. "What's been great is seeing our returners improve year by year. They've been lucky, in that they have been getting to play in same position for years in a row, and because of that we had some solid records last year. We struggled last season in doubles and we have to constantly work to fix that, because it's hard to dig out of a hole after doubles play," commented Smith. Aside from the returners, Bridgewater also brings in one new face to the fold this season in Drew Hubble. "Drew came to Bridgewater last year, but didn't come out as a freshman. He wanted to get everything in order academically, like a lot of students do, and he's going to add some depth to our lineup and push guys in the ladder. We're glad to have him on the team," said Smith. Last season, the Eagles were solidly in the number three spot in the ODAC behind perennial power Washington and Lee and the Tigers of HampdenSydney. This season, Bridgewater was selected to finish third in the conference, behind the Generals and the Tigers, but Smith expects to see continued progress from the squad. "We expect to hold the line of where we are in the conference," said Smith. "We need to continue to close the gap with W&L and Hampden-Sydney. We've been playing Hampden-Sydney closer and closer each year and we need to continue that upward march." Bridgewater opens the season on February 23, when the team travels to Brent Floyd returns to the mix after an King (Tenn.) outstanding 2009-10 season.

Commissioner Brad Bankston Celebrating its 35th year of operations, the Old Dominion Athletic Conference (ODAC) is one of the nation’s largest Division III conferences. The 14- member ODAC, including one associate member, stands as the second-largest multi-sport NCAA Division III conference in the country. The league was formed on May 18, 1975 as the Virginia College Conference and began operations in September of 1976. (The name change to Old Dominion Athletic Conference became effective January 1, 1976). Charter members were eight colleges located in the state of Virginia: Bridgewater College, Eastern Mennonite College, Emory & Henry College, Hampden-Sydney College, Lynchburg College, Randolph-Macon College, Roanoke College and Washington and Lee University. From its initial year of operation through the 1981-82 academic year, the ODAC sponsored competition in 10 men’s varsity sports, including football, soccer, and cross country in the fall; basketball, wrestling, and indoor track and field in the winter; and baseball, golf, tennis, and outdoor track and field in the spring. Women’s sports were added prior to the 1982-83 school year. Today, the ODAC has grown to Sponsor championships in 22 sports (10 men and 12 women) and houses nine full-time coeducational institutions with four single-gender schools making up the current 13 full-time members. The conference expanded in the late 1980s, early 1990s and most recently in 1999. Virginia Wesleyan became the 13th member of the conference in 1988 and began full-scale competition in the league in the 1989-90 academic year. Guilford College, voted into the conference in the spring of 1990, began competing for conference championships in the 1991-92 season. The Catholic University of America (DC) was accepted for associate membership in football on January 12, 1999. Over the past 16 years the conference and the City of Salem, Va., have gained national attention through hosting five NCAA Division III championships in football, men’s basketball, softball, baseball, women’s lacrosse, and volleyball. The growing list of titles passed out in Salem began in the fall of 1993 with the DIII Football Championship. Through the 2008-09 academic year, the conference and city have hosted 46 NCAA Division III Championships since the ‘93 Stagg Bowl. This year, the two will serve as hosts to the DIII football and men’s basketball championships.
