lntramurals serve it up at center court

by Cheryl Tranchitella staff writer

The Dixon center is holding co-ed intramural volleyball this month, it is on Monday's at 8:30 pm and it runs until 10 pm. There is an average of 10 to 14 students who come out to play and they range from freshmen to seniors, mostly males.

Katie Bifulco, a sophomore transfer at Cabrini College, participates because she needs to complete her work-study hours and she came to the Dixon Center for work and decided to do co-ed intramural volleyball. Chris Wmkler, recreation and intramural director, asked her to take on the job as the commissioner of the co-ed intramural volleyball programs. Bifulco really be- lieves that this program is a good idea. - "It brings friends together to play a friendly game of volleyball, exercise, and get their minds off of school work." "It's extra practice for her. She participates and is also the official referee of the games. She really has a good time with this program, "I enjoy coming out here because these guys are a lot of fun to play with, and we have a good time."

Alexis Strizziere, a junior, also takes part in the co-ed volleyball team. One reason is she as well as Katie has to fill workstudy hours.

There is also a group of seniors that have been playing co-ed volleyball for a while now and they all formed their own team. They are Greg Kulnis, Roy Bowman, Cliff Beckett, and Justin Christian. Kulnis says, "It's fun it gets me out of my room. I wish more people would -Greg Kulnis come out to play." He said that because senior there is a chance the program might be moved to a different night or even get Strizziere also plays volleyball for Cabrini's women's volleyball team, so this is some canceled all together. And everyone who is already involved in the program have such a good time they would hate to see that happen. They are looking for more people to come out and play. Christian says, " It's fun and I played in high school, -. We're out here to have a good time and win this thing. We have won the last four years in a row and are looking for a good team to play against."

This program is a fun way to get out of your room, complete work-study hours if you need, or to just go and meet new people. There is also a little friendly competition, but what sport does not have any?

Cliff Beckett sends out and invitation to whoever is interested in playing and also says, "Bring the competition on!"
