The Women’s Rugby team’s goal this year is to win the Rucktoberfest

championship for the third year in a row. It will be hosted by our team this

fall and will take place on October 25th and 26th. We also look to qualify for

the National Championships once again in the spring and bring home the win

for App state.

Our officers include President Kelly Castanho, Vice President Hayli Warmack,

Treasurer Julie Blakesmith, Club Sports Representative Melissa Manderbach,

and Match Secretary Janel Moriarty.

We look forward to all the new recruits coming out to practice this year and

hope they become just as excited about rugby as we are. I can already see that

we have a promising group of new players.

The ASU Fencing Club is hitting the ground running this year.

We didn’t quite meet our goals by the end of last year, but

with growing membership and better leadership, we are so

much stronger as a club. We plan on attending at least one

away tournament per semester and hosting two tournaments

here in Boone per semester. We want to compete as much

as possible. Fundraising wise, we are working with potential

sponsors here in Boone.

Our new leaders are ready for whatever challenges we might

face this year. The Fencing Club is headed by President

Vlad Vedock. Supporting him are the remaining officers:

Vice President Sean Cobb, Secretary Carl Stuecker, Treasurer

Amanda Martinez, Club Sports Representative Amanda Pausch,

Publicity Officer Kelsey Painter, and Armorer Richard Batsuli.

All were elected by their peers and well qualified.

We encourage everyone to give fencing a try. Our club requires

no prior experience, and we have all equipment necessary.

There are three different styles of fencing: foil, epee, and sabre.

While our club focuses mostly on foil and epee, sabre will be

another new thing we start this year. It is also completely safe.

We wear several layers of protective gear, so no one really gets

hurt. Fencing is loads of fun, and we could not be more excited

about the upcoming year!

As with all club sports, we are comprised of students. Over the summer many of our own travelled the world both riding bikes and continuing scholastic pursuits. Many of our elite members raced publicly outside of the collegiate realm for several well regarded development teams. Other members continued their riding inlocations ranging from Denver, Colorado all the way to the Umbria province of Italy.

Nikolai Hesterberg has been a member of the team for two years now and took a physics internship in Colorado for the summer. He let both his road andmountain bike tag along for the ride. Nikolai rode in Boulder County during the week, but traveled to spectacular ridingdestinations like Moab, Utah on theweekends

His location was so well regarded for cycling that he commonly sawprofessional teams training along the same roads.

Miles Hubbard, Forrest Howard, Alan Garvick, Gene Taylor and Brandon Freyer are all members of the Appalachian State Cycling team that continued road racing throughout the summer as a part of the High Country Development team (HCD). They raced up and down the East coast against elite competition. Zeb King was able to continue his racing around the US with Stans NoTubes p/b proferrin.

As we all return to Appalachian we are excited for the upcoming season. First up is Mountain Bike season which occurs every fall. With National Championships and Conference Championships at our home court with Beech Mountain, we are even more ecstatic.

We have another strong team assembled this year with several new recruits and fresh faces. Many of our newest riders have top level experience racing and will be able to jump right in to help Appalachian bring home the gold. We have full confidence that we can bring another National Championship home, just like last year. Our conference will have stiff competition from severaltalented riders. Appalachian State Cycling competes in the Atlantic Coast Cycling Conference (ACCC) against club andvarsity programs located in North Carolina, Virginia, West Virginia, and Maryland. There can commonly be up to 28 schools competing any given weekend. However, we are not afraid. Competition is what makes racing fun and we are excited for everyone to eat our dust this mountain bike season.

Appalachian State Swimming is off to a good start this year with over 100 new members

interested in joining the team. Swim Club participated in Welcome Weekend at the Student

Recreation Center, Club Expo, and UREC Fest in the first week back in the mountains.

The officers, Kyle Cicenia, Robert Compton, Shannon Whitaker, Kristie Majeski, and Jake

Barnes, have been working hard all summer to get ready for the 2014-2015 season. During

the break, the officers discussed ideas for fundraisers, apparel, meets, and created a brand

new website for the team.

The team is celebrating its 20th year and will hold the Annual High Country Invitational on

October 25th at the Student Recreation Center on campus.

The Club Sports Council Meeting on Wednesday, August

27th was the first one of the year and it started off with

free pizza and a special presentation from Sam Akers,

owner of our local Boone Dominoes. Mr. Akers wants to

increase the relationship between his Dominoes

pizzeria and University Recreation, so he offered us

special promotional items and tips for working

with Dominoes.

Once our Club Sports Council Representatives finished

their pizza, we promptly moved into the meeting where

we shared team updates, reviewed how a meeting runs,

and set expectations that the Council Representatives

have for each other and for the Executives. From there

we broke up into the following committees; Publicity,

Community Service, Budget Point, and Team Unity.

These committees are comprised of approximately

five Club Sports Council Representatives, and each are

guided by an Executive or the Publicity Programmer.

Each of these committees were in place last year, so

many of this year’s chairs are picking up where last

year’s committees left off. I think this is excellent

because now things that were already started can be

revived and improved, so new foundations do not have

to be repeated.

We finished the meeting with announcements from

Chelsea Watson with facilities updates and from Erin

Sanders, the Assistant Director of UREC.

This was a meeting where our Council Representatives

learned a lot about how Club Sports Council works and

what their role is; and I believe that they are now

comfortable in their roles, and have been given the

resources and support to grow and further our program.

s we gear up for the season, we are all planning hard and

training harder. We have grown substantially since our birth in 2011, growing from less than a dozen to more than forty.

With our first race less than three weeks away, we arefocusing on three main goals. We first want to grow asindividuals. Triathlon is anindividual sport, consisting of a swim, bike, then run.

Our main goal is to become a better triathlete ourselves and not worry too much about how we compare to other racerson our team or others. We are a team, and as a team we want to strengthen our bonds between each other. With team growth comes individual growth. It is much easier to get faster when training with other people, since you aren’t the only onepushing yourself; the entire team is helping to push each other. Our last goal of the season is to shoot for Nationals. This

will be somewhere on the East Coast, so since it will be close to home, we would like to send at least a few athletes to represent Appalachian State. This will be a huge step for our team since we have never had an individual participate at Nationals.

Asides from racing at Nationals, we plan to race in the Mid-Atlantic Collegiate Conference. We will be racing teams such as UNC Chapel Hill, Charlotte, Wilmington, NC State, VT, Navy, Liberty, Duke, and JMU, just to

name a few. We will race at Belews Lake on Sept 13, Richmond Olympic Tri Sept. 21, draft-legal race Oct. 5 called Trivium, and finally the MACTC Champs at Smith Lake on Oct. 18.

We have a ton of new faces this year that we are excited to train and race with! We have a great range of athletes coming in, from people

who have never done a triathlon to a few who could have a shot at Nationals in the spring. Either way, we will all work towards bettering ourselves as individuals and a team. Go Mountaineers!

The ASU Equestrian team is very excited to introduce our

new officers for the 2014 – 2015 year!

My name is Katherine Uva, a junior here at Appalachian,

and I am very honored to be this year’s President. I have

been riding horses since I could walk, and my first word

was “horsie”. I have been injured many times from horse-

back riding, but the nature of the sport always draws me

back in. My old trainer always told me “Cowgirl up, or wear

a skirt”. She always reminded me that we don’t have time

to talk and gossip in this world because we always have to

work to be the best of the best. Back home in Connecticut

I served as her Assistant Trainer for 4 years, and I had my

own clients who I trained and showed horses for before

coming to AppState. I used to ride Hunt Seat before I had a

bad jumping accident, which is when I switched to Western

which is what I competed at the National and State levels

in Showmanship, Horsemanship, Western Pleasure and Trail.

Now I am pleased to introduce my fellow officers!

EQUESTRIANTEAM

Haley McCune is the team’s Vice President and she has

been surrounded by horses my entire life. Her mother

grew up riding and she sparked Haley’s interest in the

sport. Haley took her first lesson when she was 6 years

old and immediately fell in love. In these 14 years, Haley

has gained a lot of experience that has made her both a

better rider and a better person. Being an Equestrian

doesn’t simply mean being able to ride a horse. It is so

much more than that; being an Equestrian is a life style.

To this day Haley’s favorite place in the world is, and will

always be, on the back of a horse!

Our Club Sports Representative is Molly Bostancic who is a

sophomore that has been riding for eleven years and has participated

in hunt seat, vaulting, dressage, and competitive trail riding. Molly has

also worked at a summer camp for four years teaching kids how to

ride and care for horses. One of her favorite riding memories is when

she went galloping down the beach in the Dominican Republic.

April Kaiser is a junior and our returning

Treasurer. As far as she knows, April was

born with a passion for horses. She has

been an Equestrian since she was 6 years

old and she is now 20. April says she would

have started riding even younger if she

was allowed to, but her mother was not

so eager for her to get on a 1,000 pound

animal with a mind of its own. With 14

years of experience comes many stories of

falling off and hard-learned lessons. Two

quotes have stuck with April throughout

her years of riding, “Each fall makes you

into a better rider and with each fall you

learn more about how valuable the

connection between you and your horse

is.” April’s other favorite quote is, “breathe

through it.” These sayings have gotten her

through some of the biggest challenges in

her Equestrian past and will continue to

help April grow as a competitive rider.

Our Secretary this year is sophomore Cori Rash and she started riding

Saddle Seat when she was 8 years old. Until Cori was 15, she competed at

SaddleBred shows in Raleigh and Greensboro. Her barn stopped offering

lessons which is when she switched to Hunt Seat. Cori has ridden Hunt

Seat ever since and loves that she can continue it in college. Her favorite

quote is “to ride or not to ride? what a stupid question!” from one of her

favorite sweatshirts.

CLUB BASEBALL ON STARTING FRESH

WITH A BRAND NEW YEAR

he men of the Appalachian State Club Baseball

Team are back on the mountain and ready for

another year of baseball. The team is coming

back after trying to forget about the rough

season that they left in the fall, ending with a 6-14 (5-10

conference) record. The Mountaineers finished 5th in the

conference behind ECU, UNC, Elon, and NC State while being

ahead of Wake Forest in the standings. Over the summer, the

conference and regional champion ECU Pirates made it all the

way to the 3rd/4th place game in the NCBA World Series. “They

were a very good team,” said former president Ben Duncan. “They

honestly could’ve won the whole thing.”

But the summer is over and the new year is kicking off. With

it, there are a group of new officers that have taken the reigns.

Sophomore Grant Caudill has become the Secretary/Council

Representative of the team with Junior Jon Smith as the

Treasurer. Junior Chris Andrews takes over as the Vice President

and Junior Patrick Sekel is the new President. “We’re excited to

get this year started,” said Jon. “We really learned a lot about

ourselves and our competition last year. We won’t be finishing

in 5th place this year.”

According to Patrick, about 85 people showed interest in play-

ing club baseball and about 45 responded back. A total of 32

people were present at the interest meeting, one of the highest

attendances in the team’s history. Patrick had this to say; “It’s very

exciting. I wasn’t expecting THAT many people to come out. In

the past, we’ve usually gotten 60 interest and 20 come out. Now

after seeing this, we’ve got a good feeling about this year.

The Mountaineers will be kicking off practice on August 25,

and we’ll play their first Fall series at Surry County Community

College on September 13-14.

It’s hard to imagine App State without App Ski. With such a

wonderful selection of mountains to choose from, we’re already

anticipating the upcoming winter. We’re the people you see leaving

for the mountain late in the evening instead of staying warm inside

when the weather gets cold, returning late at night with skis on our

shoulders after a long, tiring, and lively practice.

The Alpine Ski Team is a member of the USCSA Southeast

conference, and we compete each year against other universities in

the area, such as Virginia Tech, Duke, ECU, James Madison, and others.

The promise of a cold and snowy season this winter doesn’t scare

us; we’ll be ready to train hard as a team to work towards our goal:

skiing better and racing even faster than last year. Skiing takes prac-

tice and determination, and we’re ready to put in the hours at prac-

tice to become a stronger team overall. This season we’ll be holding

both mountain and dryland practices specifically tailored towards

building strength and endurance to power through the demanding

turns of our slalom and giant slalom races.

Leading the team through an exciting season this year is our

President, Dixon Styres and our Vice President, Crosby Taymore.

Matthew Brodie is our Treasurer, Brooke Liang is our Secretary, and

the Club Sports Council Representative is Rebecca Purkey. We had a

terrific 2014 season, and we’re ready to have an even better season

for 2015!

“Let it snow, let it snow, let it snow....okay yes, that is a Christmas song and I know its not anywhere near December, but honestly when is the snow going to get here?”

It’s already autumn here in Boone and the Appalachian State Snowboard team is now just counting down the months till the kick-off of theseason. Let’s be real, I know everyone is probably asking themselves, what does the Snowboard Team do when there is no snow? Well, sure thing, the snow season isn’t here yet,however, that drive for excitement never leaves a snowboarder.

A snowboarder is a certain type of person, and the Appalachian State Snowboard Team is where we all bond together to make onegnartastic group of people. Every year the team progressively gains new talented members, and this year the team is excited about receiving fresh, steezy talent, because we are ready to have a great season.

To regular people like your postman, teacher, mom and even a bunch of your friends, it must seem likesnowboarders do some pretty weird things. From our fascination with powder to our geeking out over the

littlest snow and landing tricks. It’s all stuff that’s hard wired into our behavior as snowboarders.

Why join the Appalachian State Snowboard Team? Here are a few things that snowboarders do that ‘regular people’ just don’t understand, and honestly if you find yourself understanding any of these things you should probably consider joining the steeziest team and creating the most gnartastic experiences that you will never want to forget.

Why to join the App State Snowboard Team:

WRITTEN BY KATRINA MATZA, SECRETARY

14

1) Getting a faceful of snow probably wouldn’t be that high on a list ofpriorities for ‘regular people.’ Snowboarders on the other handdaydream about it on the regs. Come to think of it, we’re all probably doing it right now.

2) Regular people just don’t understand our fascination with headwear. No, we don’t have a bald patch under there, and yes, we are a little hot wearing our beanies but chucking that hat on in the morning and rocking it, is kinda our way of showing the world that we do rad stuff. Plus normally our hair looks like a disaster and its an easy steezy way to cover it up.

3) While words like sick, rad, gnarly and steezy mean very definite things to us as snowboarders, but using them around regular people can causeconfusion. At best they think we’re ‘hippy/hobo surfer types’ and at worst they think we’re actually speaking a

foreign language.

4) Most regular folk have experienced the uncontrollable frustration you get at printers or TV remotes that decide not to work when you need them most. For us snowboarders though, it’s perfectly normal to lose our head at a handrail, chuck our board at a wall, or generally rage on an inanimate object that 1) can’t hear us 2) can’t respond and 3) is not the reason we suck.

5) Being injured, sick, or at work sucks worst of all. But most ‘regular’ folk will never be able to properly understand the amount of frustration/depression caused when it’s a bluebird powder day and you’re stuck cleaning hotel rooms, stacking shelves to pay your rent or sitting at home in a cast after owning yourself on some stupid park rail.

So, in conclusion, if you feel that you have done any of these ridiculous things, you are probably already part

of the snowboard team family. Our family is something that will stay with you for years after graduating and I will tell you from first hand experience that the memories will never go away because they are just too epic to forget. Therefore, let’s kick this season off the right way and be proud that you are a snowboarder!

Stay steezy my friends!

The Women’s Club Basketball team at Appalachian State is about to embark on a new season this fall. The girls are very excited to showcase their talents at a variety of tournaments throughout the southeast. They will travel to about 3 tournaments a semester and host a tournament that is scheduled for September 20-21, 2014 at the Student Recreation Center.

With a new head coach and newofficers, the team is getting ready for all the changes that will occur this season. Dylan Eppley, Junior, is going to take on the position of head coach this season. Because he was the assistant coach last year, he is very prepared for thisresponsibility. Cam Lawson, Junior, will be the assistant coach. He was very influential last season by teaching new skills at practices and participating in scrimmaging to increase the intensity. Even though the women’s club team

is fortunate enough to have coaches, the officers of the club team make the majority of the decisions. Carly Hall, Junior, is the President of the team; Anna Lipocky, Junior, is the Vice President; Casey Tarwater, Senior, is the treasurer, and Alyssa Horan, Sophomore, is the secretary. The officers are very hopeful on having a successful season.

The women’s club team practices twice a week at Quinn. One of the changes to the practice schedule is aboutimplementing another practice on Sunday to help the team buildchemistry. With an additional practice, the team feels that they could be more cohesive and perform better attournaments, which is one of the main goals this season. At Nationals last year in Raleigh, North Carolina, theplayers felt that their performance did not directly correlate with the level of play that they are capable of. The

coaches and players know that there needs to be some alterations atpractice.

The interest meeting for the fallsemester had a great turnout. There are many girls from all grades wanting to participate. Since many girls on the team graduated last year, the returning players are excited about having more teammates. Overall, this upcomingseason for the women’s club team looks very promising. The girls are ready to work hard and represent Appalachian State at the best of their ability.

The returning players are excited about having more teammates

A new school year has begun, and it has brought along with it many new,excited climbers to join the Club Climbing Team. In addition to new team members, we have some new team officers this year. David Putnam is our new Treasurer, Maggie Jones is our new Vice President of Administration, and Mark Morley has taken on the position of Vice President of Programming. Alexa Zakula has stayed on board as Secretary, and Matthew Myers is still holding his position as team President.

Our goal for this year is to have a strong, successful team to represent ouruniversity at other schools andcompetitions around the Southeast. We

want to send at least fifteen climbers to the Nationals competition in May, as well as bring home the top placetrophies at every competition we attend. We are also excited to take an overnight climbing trip later in the semester as well as many day trips to local boulder fields around Boone. We will behosting our Southern Comfort Bouldering Competitions again each semester, the first will be in November, and areexpecting another great turnout.

For anybody who might be unfamiliar to the sport, rock climbing is a very physically demanding activity that was not really recognized as its own sport until the 1950’s. Climbing can be done

outside on natural rock structures, or in gyms on handmade walls with plastic holds. There are also different styles of climbing, such as bouldering, top rope, sport, and traditional climbing. Bouldering is the most common form of climbing for our team. This meansclimbing shorter climbs called “problems” without extra protection of a rope and harness. Boulderers rely on a large canvas-covered piece

of hard foam called a crash pad and the help of their spotters who make sure they land safely on the crash pad, if they do fall. Top rope climbing is also very popular in our school’s gym, especially with newer climbers. This style involves a rope, harness, and another person to belay the climber as they make their way up a route, which is much taller than a boulder. The rope that supports the climber if they fall is fed through a chain anchor at the top of the route,connecting the climber and belayer. The more challenging styles of ropeclimbing, traditional and sport, involve the belayer feeding rope to the climber as they ascend, and the climberattaching the rope to quickdraws atdifferent intervals while they climbhigher. In traditional climbing, theclimber not only clips the rope in as he is climbing, but also carries all of his own gear with him and sets each piece into the rock as he ascends. While we do have a handful of team members that are sports and traditional climbers during their own time, our team has focused onbouldering, but we plan to incorporate more top rope climbing this year.

As our players migrate from the sand courts to

the hard court, we see volleyball season start

to kick in at full force. Wasting no time, our

volleyball teams have their first tournament

at Western Carolina University on September

27th. With only a couple weeks to prepare, once

teams are made, officers and players alike are

ready to see the results of team placements.

Sophomore Club Treasurer Emily Rideout,

explains that “as a freshman last year playing

club was one of the best decisions I made.” All

officers hope to see a good turn out this year at

team placements as we try to grow and expand

our club, as well as our reach on campus and

in our community. President Priya Ford says as

a result, “This will set an excellent foundation

for next year and hopefully raise everyone to a

higher player level.”

Not only are officers ready to see new members,

but also returning players who can help lead on

and off the court. Club Volleyball prides itself

on representing Appalachian State and Club

Sports everywhere we go, from tournaments

to volunteer events to even classrooms! Club

Representative Jamie Lee Misencik says she’s

“excited for the new members to show us their

talent and to represent the team as a whole!”

Club Volleyball is specifically excited about

becoming more involved on campus and in the

community as Emily explains, “My goal for this

year is for the team to grow and get our name

out around campus! I want to volunteer

together and fundraise, and rock out at our

home tournaments!” With the potential of not

just one, but two home tournaments this

season, Club Secretary Corbin Bruton is hopeful

there will be a good amount of parents, friends

and other club teams come to support Club

Volleyball!

The outlook of this season is bright, and all

members of Club Volleyball are ready to show

the University and Boone what we’ve got!
