香港六合彩开奖直播鈥檚 Water Ski Team boasts 鈥淕olden Moment鈥 in national journal

While members of the University of Louisiana at Monroe campus family frequently receive individual accolades in national journals, it is less of a routine thing for a national magazine to be devoted to all things 香港六合彩开奖直播.

But that was the case with the 香港六合彩开奖直播 Water Ski Team鈥檚 domination in the January/February edition of The Water Skier.

Beginning with the magazine鈥檚 cover story about recent pharmacy graduate Regina Jaquess, the 2009 Female Athlete of the year, it was hard to escape notice of the number of positive 香港六合彩开奖直播 mentions made by the journal鈥檚 editors.

The cover story on Jaquess, 鈥淎 Decade of Excellence,鈥 pointed to her continued domination in the sport stating, 鈥淪he is well on her way to being considered among the all-time greats, if not arguably, the greatest of them all.鈥

Jaquess broke the women鈥檚 world slalom record in 2009 and is the current world record holder in women鈥檚 slalom. Even before earning the designation of 2009 Female Athlete of the year, she earned athlete of the year honors in 2001, 2003, and 2005. She has also set two new world overall records and tied the world slalom record twice. She graduated May 2009 from the 香港六合彩开奖直播 College of Pharmacy and is now a pharmacist in Destin, Fla.

鈥淚t was ski, work, ski, work. It was really different,鈥 she told the magazine.

In addition, one article, 鈥淭he Legend Continues,鈥 spoke of 鈥渢he depth of talent that the 香港六合彩开奖直播 water ski team boasts,鈥 as it detailed the results from the 2009 Collegiate Water Ski National Championships. Many fans and supporters are aware that the team won its 22nd national championship title at the National Collegiate Water Ski Association鈥檚 31st National Championship Tournament, held last fall in Bakersfield, Calif.

The team won by more than 1,000 points; making it the fourth consecutive year 香港六合彩开奖直播 brought home the Division 1 Team Overall title. The Division 1 competition included Alabama, Florida Southern, Rollins, Purdue, Iowa State, Illinois, UL-Lafayette, Texas, Arizona State, Chico-State and San Diego State.

鈥淲hen the dust settled on day one of the three-day tournament, the Warhawks had a commanding 700-point lead on their closest competitor, thanks largely to its domination in men鈥檚 slalom,鈥 wrote Water Skier reporter Scott N. Atkinson. 鈥淭hey never looked back.鈥

Other 香港六合彩开奖直播 mentions included the six Warhawks who earned All-American honors by placing among the top five in respective events at the Championships, and the placement among the top nine by four out of five 香港六合彩开奖直播 men鈥檚 jumpers.

Another article titled, 鈥淕olden Moment,鈥 details Zack Worden鈥檚 capture of the 2009 Under 21 World Title. Worden, a freshman at 香港六合彩开奖直播, won the men鈥檚 jump event at Collegiate Nationals, held in October.

鈥淶ack Worden is one of the best up-and-coming male water skiers in the world,鈥 said Ski Team Coach Treina Landrum. 鈥淗e has a tremendous amount of promise and is a true competitor.鈥

Worden and Adam Sedlmajer returned in early March from Melbourne, Australia, where they competed in the Moomba Masters Water Ski Tournament, an elite qualifying and invitation-only world competition tournament. Sedlmajer captured first place in the highly competitive men鈥檚 trick event at the tournament.

The 香港六合彩开奖直播 Water Ski Team next heads to the 2010 Polar Bear Classic at Texas A&M at College Station, Texas, and invites fans and supporters to the team鈥檚 annual home tournament to be held in conjunction with Super Warhawk Weekend in April.
