PC Baseball Team

With Presbyterian College baseball team’s career conference record at 33-71 in the Big South, one could easily say the Blue Hose stand for much improvement.  However, simply looking at this record without a glance at the teams within the conference gives a skewed impression.

Coach Tommy Spangler

The Blue Hose football team is about to experience a very good change. After being away for seven years, Coach Tommy Spangler will return to PC on March 1st as our new defensive coordinator. When he began his work with the Blue Hose in 1997, he was the defensive coordinator. He continued to coach defense in 2001 when he took the reins and assumed the role of head coach. As a head coach, he accomplished many things including a South Atlantic Conference title and the best winning percentage of any coach in PC football history. Coach Spangler is regarded as one of college football’s best defensive coaches and recently was a finalist for the Broyles Award for the top assistant coach of the year.

The smell of freshly mown grass on a beautiful day is fantastic as the sun warms your skin. Nine players take the field and the first batter walks to the plate.  Play ball!  This is my idea of a perfect day.

You always hear people say how boring a sport baseball is.  All they do is stand around except for five second breaks for a play.  This is true.  And watching this happen on TV can be incredibly boring at times.  But you sit in those stands and hear the roaring of the crowd, the crack of the bat, and the absolute energy of everything and everyone around and you cannot possibly say that it’s boring.

MLK weekend did not stop the turnout at the Saturday night basketball game.  Many students, parents, and faculty attended the PC v Liberty game.  Going into the game, expectations were high.  The PC men had yet to win a Big South Conference game[1] , while Liberty had won one out of four.

Senior Khalid Mutakabbir

Saturday, our very own Templeton gym played host to not one but two basketball games. A double header between the PC women and men’s basketball teams against Radford and Campbell Universities, respectively. PC Women played at 5, followed by PC Men at 7:45.  PC women played a very intense game against Radford, trying to maintain their winning streak in the Big South Conference, 5-0.  Maintaining this streak proved to be difficult.  … Continue Reading

The Advantage of Guaranteed Failure

November 17, 2012 Sports No Comments

With the 2012 football season coming to a close, we look back on PC’s performance and ask ourselves, “What the heck happened?!”

Photo credit to The Athletic Department

If you think that you’re the only one with these less-than-optimistic thoughts, worry not. Athletic director Brian Reese described the season as “difficult … and disappointing”. Apparently, quite a few integral players sustained extensive injuries at the beginning of the year causing the season to take a different turn than expected.
