The end of a great semester for sports

Well this semester was filled with many surprises. The Rams constantly worked their hardest and never gave up. Colorado State got another Athletic Director, who I feel like can actually do a great job for the program. Football was the most news worthy of all the sports. In one semester, we lost practically every game and in turn got another head coach.

It was just announced today, the new Rams Head Coach is Jim McElwain. He comes from working at Alabama for two and many other years of experience in both the NFL and NCAA football. After watching the press conference today, I feel like he could really turn the program around. 


Besides football, every sport went through changes this semester. The women's basketball team started out with a rough season, but have since come back. The last two games they have played they have come out on top. They next play in Cancun, Mexico for conference.


The men's basketball team are kind of struggling right now. They have some great players on that team and I think they can overcome this and really show their strength here in the upcoming months.


Cross country had a good season overall. They had some great athletes that stood out on top in every conference they competed in. For the majority of their matches, the women's team always had at least one player in the top 10 out of a hundred athletes.


The women's golf team have shown their strength all season. In many tournaments, they placed within the top 10. The great thing about this team is that they are all committed to their teammates.


The CSU volleyball team has shown so much power throughout this season. They made it to the NCAA Championships in Hawaii and made it to the second round. They were consistently on top of all the Mountain West teams. They finished out the season with some great stats and hopefully next year show even more strength.
