The flag football champion for 2014 is Team Chopnation, captained by Eddy Camara. The semi-final game was an exciting 58 to 56 thriller between Chopnation and Team Leonard. Team Leonard took a lead late in the game only to have Chopnation answer with a late touchdown to secure the victory. The speed of Camara, Devaughn Jones, Donald Payne and Allena Pugliano were major factors in the game. The passing and running of Carnell Hawkins were too much for Leonard’s squad to overcome. Pictured is Team Celebrity All Stars, l-r, Kyrie Wade, Demetrius Laster, Shaq McCray, Chris Troop, Brian Quach and Kristin McCarthy. Article and photos by Harry Miller. The championship game pitted Team Celebrity AllStars against the powerful Camara bunch. The AllStars had no answer for the scoring punch of Chopnation. Captain Demetrius Laster’s squad never quit, but there was no weakness in the game of their opponents, who had their offense and defense at the top of their game. The weather was beautiful and the competitors were amazing. Congratulations to all who participated! Page 2 P a n t h e r p r i n t Intramural Golf Championships The 2014 Pitt-Titusville golf champion is Chris Fiely. Chris defeated Mike Willis in a hard fought semi-final match played at the beautiful Mount Hope golf course. The match went right down to the very last hole tied, when Mike’s approach shot to the green went out of bounds. Chris calmly hit the putting surface with his shot and putted out for the victory. In the other semi-final match, Brandon George defeated Zach Starkey. Zach hit some excellent shots, but the accurate driving of Brandon was too much to overcome. Pictured above are, l-r, Brandon George and Chris Fiely. Pictured right are Chris Fiely, top, and Brandon George, bottom, taking their shots. The championship match between Chris and Brandon was played at the cool and windy Cross Creek course. A rain the previous night made for difficult playing conditions, but Chris’s approach shots and accurate putting proved too much for Brandon’s game that day. Congratulations to our first ever intramural golf champion, Chris Fiely. Students, faculty and staff wore pink on October 24th to support the Relay for Life.
