by Gerl Lynn Utter sports editor

The Cabrini Cavaliers "kareemed" the Eastern Eagles by a whopping 41 points. Kareem Brunson, power forward, had an astounding game scoring 31points and having 13 rebounds at Saturday's game against Eastern. The Cavaliers demonstrated a sharp tenacity at the game, which allowed them to reap the benefits of yet another victory.

After attending Saturday's game, it was obvious that Cabrini has what it takes to compete in the Penna. Athletic Conference Championship on Feb.22. Due to the outstanding defense by the Cavaliers at the game against the Eagles, the Cavaliers were given numerous opportunities to score on fast-breaks. For example, a fast-break is when two people on the same team are against one person on the opposing team in the open court trying to score. For instance, Tim Maddox, a small forward, also known as "Delicious," stole the ball off of a pass from one of Eastern's shooting guards and pushed the ball up the floor on a fast-break with power forward, Kareem Brunson. As a result, Maddox, successfully passed the ball to Brunson paving the way for a slam dunk.

"The Cabrini Cavaliers are gradually proving that they have the talent and capability to win the Penna. Athletic Conference Championship on Feb.22nd.", said Maddox. Cabrini demonstrated excellent teamwork on Saturday's game against Eastern. Under the guidance of head coach John Dzik, the Cavaliers entered the game with intense enthusiasm and played hard defensively against the Eastern Eagles which enabled them to defeat Eastern with a final score of 90 to 49.

If high-pressure competition is not your idea of fun, then maybe intramural sports is the activity for you. Intramural athletics at Cabrini allows students to play against their fellow classmates and friends in a more laid-back atmosphere than· traditional college sports.

The spring intramural season is under way,and it gives those interested many options to choose from.

Here is what is offered this season:

Squash will be played Tuesdays, Wednesdays and Thursdays from 5 p.m. to7 p.m.

Indoor coed soccer will take place Tuesdays at 10 p.m.

On Thursday nights there is three-on-three halfcourt basketball. Sign up before Feb. 8 to join.

Pick-up volleyball will happen Sundays from 9 to 11 p.m. and is open to students, faculty and staff. There is no deadline to join.

One new feature this season is the coed swim club that meets Tuesdays at 8 p.m. The club will do various workouts together. Colleen Poole, aquatics director, will post a workout schedule for those who want to workout independently. "The club is open to anyone and you do not have to be a great swimmer to join," Poole said. One goal of the coed swim club is to gather a group of swimmers from Cabrini to participate in open water swims across the country. These take place in various oceans and rivers.

In March, tennis, beach volleyball and Ultimate Frisbee will be added to the intramural lineup.

Chris Winkler, facility manager at the Dixon Center, believes students really enjoy intramural sports because there is not as much pressure to perform. "People enjoy the fact that it is a laid-back atmosphere, and they have a chance to have a good time with their friends," Winkler said.
