Silliman

In my two years as an intra mural secretary, I've learned one very important lesson: don't count the cellar out. Oh, sure, try to keep Silliman down there with the cobwebs, plumbing, and booze--even if the latter is a sweet deal. Petty mistakes, Intramural World.

Killer SM volleyball teams warn you to look behind, as memories of the fifth floor of the House of Payne reign haunt your every footsteps. Fear the women warriors--JE, Trumbull, Pierson, and TD have all succumbed to the likes of outrageous captain "Shagadelic" Shannon Huffaker '98 and star hitter Lillian "Wonder Woman" Wang '99. Quake at the fury of Andrew "the Android" Chen '99 as he leads the men on a mission to shirts, who are 3-1 at press time, registering their first-ever love game (15-0) against--who else--TD.

Undaunted by teams playing dirtier than a piggie in a rainstorm, Silliman takes to the ice under Ben "But Wayne, why can't I be an olympian" White '99. With veterans Masa "the Man" Ishido '98, Dante "Damn if I keep skating circles around them" Rizzo '00, Hugh "better not mess with the Dean" Flick, and nefarious net-minders Joe "Just get that outta here" Pilch '99 and Matt "I keep my goal spic n'" Spanjers '98, these smooth skaters offered up 6-3 and 12-1 drummings of JE and TD. The future of Silliman hockey is here.

I promise. Heed my advice, ye novices. The next college we run over on the way to the Tyng just might be your own.
