Softball League Trophies Presented

Thursday, June 12th, 2008

This past week the Natchez Adams Girls’ Softball League in Natchez, MS held their closing ceremonies, giving out the trophies for all of the top teams, coaches, and players.

The top trophy winners for T-ball, coach pitch, 11 and under and 12 and under were Chris Hinson of Natchez Community Hospital, Chris Kelly of Natchez Coke, Jody Upton of Sonic and Greg Brown, of Natchez Bus Terminal, respectively. The trophies were presented by Belinda Brashier, the league organizer. Brashier made sure to mention that the trophies did not go to the coaches that “won the most games, but taught the kids how to win, lose, and play with class.”

The biggest award of the night was the Riana Flynn Memorial Scholarship. The $500 scholarship and trophy went to Brittany Jackson, 17, of Adams County Christian School. Brashier said Jackson earned the trophy because she displays quality sportsmanship, and is an amicable and outgoing individual.

Trophies and medals for Penn athletes

Friday, March 21st, 2008

Pennsylvania athletes brought home several trophies and medals over the past week

Local fans were riveted to Friday night’s Class AAA matchup between Steel-High and Susquehanna Twp., an unusual championship game pairing two teams from the same area.

Only one team takes home the trophy, however, and Steel-High added yet more hardware to the school’s trophy case.

The same day, the Central Dauphin girls gave the school its first state basketball championship by coming from behind in the second half to beat Mount Lebanon for the AAAA, or large-school, title.

As Central Dauphin and Steel-High paraded championship trophies around Penn State’s Bryce Jordan Center, East Pennsboro’s Leah Gingrich spent Friday and Saturday setting two state swimming records in winning Class AA gold medals in the 200-yard individual medley and the 500-yard freestyle at Bucknell University.

Gingrich wasn’t the only local swimmer to make a big splash during the four days at Kinney Natatorium. Hershey’s Katie Nolan was named the outstanding swimmer in the girls AAA meet by taking two individual gold medals in the 100-yard butterfly (in state record time) and 100-yard free, and earning a third with teammates Erica Rapp, Katelyn Miller and Jordan Liedholm in the 400-free relay.

Younger brother David Nolan added to the family mantel with a boys AA gold in the 200-yard IM. A fourth area swimmer, Cumberland Valley’s Steven Gasparini, captured gold in the boys AAA 200 IM.

These performances came a week after Central Dauphin won the AAA state team wrestling championship at the Giant Center.

Congratulations to all of the Pennsylvania trophy and medal winners!

Trophies News spotlights the new Carolina Basketball Museum

UNC’s Carolina Basketball Museum, which opened to the public on Jan. 28, features more than 450 pieces of memorabilia and trophies from the celebrated basketball program. The museum cost $3.4 million and covers 8,000 square feet.

The new museum is an upgrade from the much smaller memorabilia and trophy room in the Smith Center, which was used for other sports as well. The only other university with a basketball-only museum is Kentucky.

The trophy room is filled with ACC championship, Final Four and NCAA championship memorabilia. The NCAA Championship trophy case still has room for four more trophies, should UNC win them someday.

The idea was formed roughly five years ago when Hall of Fame coach Dean Smith decided to donate his extensive collection of memorabilia to North Carolina.

“I think that Carolina fans are a pretty passionate group about the basketball team,” said Steve Kirschner, UNC’s associate athletic director for communications and a member of the museum committee. “We’ve been blessed with a great deal of success, both great teams, great players, great coaches. We’ve never had one place where we’ve been able to bring all that together in terms of the memorabilia and the trophies. We have that now with this museum.”

Trophy for Tottenham team

Carling Cup trophyTottenham wins their first trophy in nine years

WEMBLEY, England – Tottenham rallied to beat Chelsea 2-1 Sunday in extra time in the Carling Cup final, giving Spurs their first trophy in nine years.

Now Juande Ramos, who won two straight UEFA Trophy Cup titles at Sevilla, will turn his focus to winning a third trophy in Europe’s No. 2 competition.

“To come in after a few months and win a trophy is an incredible achievement,” Tottenham striker Robbie Keane said. “He’s given us the belief that we can win every game and you can see that in our performances since he took over.”

With Tottenham faltering under Martin Jol, Ramos was lured from Sevilla, where he also won the Copa del Rey, the Spanish Super Cup and the European Super Cup.

“It’s always a tremendous satisfaction to win a trophy,” Ramos said. “This one maybe has a special flavour to it because it was against a team that was superior to us. Perhaps it makes it taste better.

Basketball battle for the Goat Trophy

Thursday, January 17th, 2008

Trophies News spotlights the Goat Trophy college basketball rivalry

Minnesota – St. Olaf College and Carleton College played the first of two games this season to determine if the Knights can maintain possession of the famed Goat Trophy. St. Olaf was the winner of last night’s game, beating Carleton by just 1 point (final score 61-60).

HISTORY OF THE GOAT TROPHY

• In 1914, Endre Anderson, a St. Olaf student (and later Oles coach) fashioned a makeshift goat out of a chair and hung it from the rafters of the St. Olaf gym. He was trying to “get the goat” of the Carleton players. Carleton won that game and claimed the Goat as a trophy. The two teams have traded the “Goat” ever since.

• The team not in possession of the Goat Trophy must be sweep the season series in order to wrest control away from the other team.

• After earning of the “Goat” with two wins in 1958, St. Olaf maintained possession of the trophy until 1989-90 when Carleton prevailed in a pair of close contests. The trophy has resided with Carleton every year since, except the 2002-03 season when the Oles pulled out a pair of overtime victories.
