The C of I football program held its first public practice in 37 years this spring. Hundreds attended as Coach Mike Moroski’s squad held an 11-on-11 scrimmage and then mingled with alumni and fans. The Coyotes also unveiled their helmet design: Gold with a purple stripe down the middle and the C of I logo on both sides. The design was decided by a vote amongst C of I students, alumni, faculty and staff.
The C of I women’s track team put a bow on an outstanding season by winning its second consecutive Cascade Conference championship and competing at NAIA Outdoor Nationals. C of I senior Sarah “Bobbles” Johnson punctuated her career by winning the 5,000 meters in her final collegiate race. Johnson pulled away from the field and finished in 17:24.06 to become the third individual national champion in program history. Hillary Holt won her third straight national title in the outdoor 1,500 and later was named Cascade Conference Women’s Athlete of the Year for the second consecutive season. Holt, an 11-time national champion and 17-time All-American, also earned the league’s Cross Country and Track & Field Athlete of the Year awards while closing out her stellar career at the C of I.
