Weekly Recap - October 18 - 24

Hopefully everyone had a great time at homecoming, I know we had a great turnout at all of the events surrounding the football game. It was also great to see some of the members of “The Team that Started it All” at the 1985 football reunion.

Sophomore women’s golfer Amanda D’Ostroph has been named this week’s CSU Athlete of the Week after carding the highest finish of her collegiate career this week. D’Ostroph, who received consideration for Big South Golfer of the Week honors, shot 75-75 to finish eight over par with a 150.

Her score was enough for fifth-place out of 68 golfers, four shots off the lead, and helped lead the Buccaneer team to a fifth-place team finish. She was tops in the field on par 5 scoring, averaging 4.67 for the tournament, while registering four birdies.

Also Nominated: Amanda Hill (Volleyball), Michelle Dennis (Women’s Soccer), Deon Lee (Football)

October 22 – Soccer vs. Coastal Carolina – L, 2-1
For the first time this season in Big South play, CSU lost a game, doing so by a 2-1 count to Coastal Carolina. In a physical game, the Bucs held their own, and the game looked like it would come down to a late goal to decide it. CSU thought they had it as Michelle Dennis score her sixth goal of the season, settling a ball in the box and putting it away in the 68th minute. CCU immediately went back on an all-out attack and scored to even the match in the 80th minute, finding the game winner in the 88th minute to hand CSU its first loss of the Big South slate.
