On a rainy Wednesday night, the Marist Men’s Soccer Team hosted #12 nationally ranked Fordham Rams in a non-conference matchup.
Separate gym facilities for athletes and students, an indoor track, and drastically expanded locker room space are all amenities students can look forward to upon the completion of the McCann Center renovation in 2019. For students of Marist’s senior class, all they will get is an inconvenient rebuild.
The Marist Men’s Soccer Team was hoping for a hero’s welcome on their home opener, coming off an upset over nationally ranked University of the Pacific.
They did not get it.
Marist hosted the Georgetown Hoyas for their season opener on Saturday. Marist quickly fell behind and went into the locker room trailing Georgetown 11-0 at the half. Despite a small comeback in the second half, Marist fell to Georgetown with the final score of 39-14.
Over the past two decades, there have been 15 international Men’s Basketball players from 15 different countries at Marist College. Is this just a coincidence or a part of a tradition at Marist of international recruitment by the Men’s Basketball program?
There was growing concern that Marist was only able to develop “Quadruple A” players, meaning that they produced players that were talented enough to get drafted, but not good enough to stick professionally. That was until September 9, 2016, when Kevin McCarthy toed the rubber for the first time as a pitcher for the Kansas City Royals.
Transferring to a mid-major after playing basketball for an ACC school may seem to some like a downgrade, but Marist College forward Alana Gilmer disagrees. After leaving Virginia Tech for Marist, she found her true home in Poughkeepsie.
On August 26, 2016, Vander Weide was charged with a DWI and indefinitely suspended from the basketball team at Missouri State, but was allowed to stay in school.
When she was going through what she described as “rock bottom,” Vander Weide turned to her faith for guidance.
The Marist baseball season has been filled with walk-off wins and thrilling victories. Wednesday’s game…
Down 7-0 in the third quarter, looking toward the end of a championship game is difficult. Breaking out with the first goal of the game and creating momentum to win could seem to be an almost impossible feat. But some teams refuse to go down without a fight. Marist Water Polo is one of them.
