NCAA RECOGNITION

The fall sports teams did a wonderful job this past school year. On and off the field they demonstrated exemplary performances to show that they were above par as student athletes should be. As well as all of the students, athletes, and coaches did there are two individuals that stood out above the rest and need to be recognized for their hard work and effort.

Coach Anthony Ogunsanya is the head men’s soccer coach and has been for the past four years. Coach “O”, as he is affectionately called on campus, demands excellence from his players and pushes them as far as he can hoping that they themselves will take it even further individually afterwards. He has improved the success of the team each year pushing them further and further and all the hard work and endurance paid off well this past season with the team finishing 2nd in the nation in the USCAA. He also had another tribute to announce and that was being nominated and awarded the honor of being named the Coach of the Year of all Independent Schools by the NCAA.

The second individual that needs to be acknowledged for his hard work and effort is Se-Eun Park, also known as Sam Park. Park was recognized by the NCAA for being number 1 in division II athletes for points per game with 3.42 and number 1 in number of goals scored during the season with 31 goals in 19 games (an average of 1.63). Park is a theology major at CUC accepting his diploma this May.

Congratulations to both gentlemen for their hard work and successes. All the work paid off and hopefully will spill over into next year as well for another exciting season. We are extremely proud of you and will always remember the mark you left on CUC’s history.
