Athletics
After falling behind 2-0 Wednesday, the
Clayton State women's soccer team bat-
tled back for three unanswered goals to
pull out a 3-2 overtime victory against
Montevallo in Peach Belt Conference
action in Montevallo, Ala. Clayton State
freshman Denisha Paskell scored the
game winner in the 96th minute, her
Peach Belt Conference leading 10th goal
of the season. The score came off an assist
from Jahmela Williams. The Clayton
State men's soccer team captured its sec-
ond Peach Belt Conference victory of the
season Wednesday, blanking Montevallo
2-0, also on the road. The Lakers scored
two goals late in the match to pull out the
victory. The first one came on a goal by
forward Alhagi Toure off a penalty kick in
the 77th minute of the match, his Peach
Belt leading eighth of the season. The
Lakers got some insurance five minutes
later as Niko Gazibara scored off an assist
from Samuel Barnsley to give the squad a
two goal advantage.

Auxillary Services
Do you have worn-out athletic shoes lying
around? If so, you can donate them for
recycling so they can have new life as a
tennis court, a playground, or a basketball
court. The GoGreen student organization
at Clayton State University has placed a
collection bin outside the LakerCard
Center on the first floor of the James M.
Baker University Center for used athletic
shoe donations between Oct. 1 and Oct.
31. GoGreen will accept any athletic
shoes and any brand, but only athletics
shoes – nothing with metal, no sandals or
flip-flops, no cleats or dress shoes, and no
wet or damp shoes.
