Weekly Recap - January 25 - 31

The biggest news on campus has been the servant attitude on campus. This year, CSU has been promoting its vision statement of “Integrating Faith in Learning, Leading and Serving,” and this week perhaps as much as any other week this year, students took this to heart.
Starting with the “Barefoot for Bare Feet” games, last weekend, CSU continued the shoe drive and collected almost 300 pairs of shoes for Samaritan’s Feet Ministries. Last Wednesday, CSU also hosted a Concert of Love for Haiti, raising more than $3,100 for relief efforts through the Baptist Global Relief.

We certainly appreciate everyone’s support and generosity for both causes.

One other note, our main athletic Web site (csusports.com) has been experiencing some difficulties over the past week. Although the bulk of our information has been restored, we are still waiting on a couple of things from our web provider and we appreciate your patience with us as we all work to get things back to normal.

CSU Athlete of the Week

After leading her team in scoring in a pair of victories this week, Katie Tull has been named the CSU Athlete of the Week. Tull averaged 17.5 points per game and 3.5 rebounds while missing just three minutes of action.

With 19 points against Radford and 16 against Presbyterian College, Tull had seven treys and was an incredible 10-of-12 from the free throw line. This week, she recorded three assists, three blocks and three steals

She is currently atop the Big South and fourth in the national with threes per game (3.7) and is three treys short of the school’s single-season record.

January 25 – WBB vs. Radford – W, 67-61
Katie Tull scored 19 and Kelsey Wasmer added 18 points to lead CSU past Radford at the Buc Dome. The victory ended a three-game Big South losing skid, and got CSU back on the right track after upsetting the Highlanders, who started Big South play with a 4-1 record.

January 28 – MBB @ Winthrop – L, 55-53
Trailing by as many as 18, CSU battled back and had multiple chances to steal a win on the road, but the shots didn’t fall late for the Buccaneers. Jeremy Sexton and Jamarco Warren each had 15 points for CSU, while Kelvin Martin added 12 to account for almost 80 percent of the team’s scoring.

January 30 – WBB @ Presbyterian – W, 64-49
Winning on the road is never easy in the Big South Conference, but when you hit 14 three-pointers, it gets a little easier. Katie Tull had four of the treys for CSU, dropping in a game-high 16 points, to lead the team to a 15-point victory over PC. CSU moved two games over .500 for the season and is one game away from evening their conference record.

January 30 – MBB @ Presbyterian – L, 58-51
The men’s team did not have the same success as they faced PC in the second game of a double header at the Templeton Center. CSU shot just 37.5 percent from the floor and 44 percent from the line in the loss. The game, much like the one before against Winthrop, was very close throughout, with CSU getting to within three points late in the game, but late free throws put the game out of reach.
