First Year Advising
All teams
to elite status in the league. Picked to fin-
ish fourth in the preseason poll, the Lakers
won the league's regular-season champi-
onship for the first time since 2005 and
are the top seed for the tournament for the
first time.
Under O'Sullivan's leadership, the Lakers
were 8-0-3 in conference play this season,
the only PBC team to navigate the sched-
ule without a conference loss.
The Coach of the Year honor is the first
for O'Sullivan at Clayton State, and he
becomes the first Laker women's soccer
coach to receive the honor.
Along with Robinson, the Lakers had two
other players named to the first team All-
Conference squad in freshman forward
Denisha Paskell and junior midfielder
Melissa Hetherington. Paskell leads
Clayton State with 13 goals on the year
and is second in the league in goals
scored. Hetherington ranks third in the
conference in scoring with 11 goals on the
year.
Clayton State had a trio of defenders and
keeper Charlotte McCormack recognized
as second team All-Conference perform-
ers. Freshman Nina Boganes and juniors
Tamaki Onuma and Emily Walling also
received the honor. The Laker defense
currently holds a 0.98 goals against aver-
age, third-best in the Peach Belt. The
Clayton State defense has recorded eight
shutouts on the year.
Trivia Time
Now THERE’S
A Story that
Really Needs to
Be an Opera….
by John Shiffert
As only Clayton State Opera
Director Dr. Kurt-Alexander
Zeller could phrase it, “now
THERE’S a story that really needs
to be an opera…”
He’s talking about possibly the
most botched assassination
attempt in history, the ultimately
successful, though long and
drawn out, disposal on the Mad
Monk, Rasputin, by a bunch on
inept royal Russian conspirators.
An earlier attempt at stabbing
Rasputin didn’t work, so the con-
spirators moved on to heavy doses
of poison, shooting (twice, a cou-
ple of hours apart), beating and
then finally tying him up and toss-
ing him in the semi-frozen Neva
River. It should be noted that
these last four attempted killings
all took place on the same day,
yet, when his body was pulled
from the river, it was found that
he’d drowned, because he could-
n’t escape being tied up.
As you can guess, Zeller had the
first correct answer, followed by
three other former Trivia Time
champions, Kelly Adams, Jill
Ellington and Rob Taylor.
Speaking of coming back from the
dead… whose brain did Gene
Wilder put into Peter Boyle in
“Young Frankenstein?” And what
did Marty Feldman have to say in
identifying the “donor?”
