WINTER 2012 - Concordia University

Tornado Athletics
Domonique Liddell has been a top finalist in
Persuasion Contagion and also serves as secretary
for the SAAC.
The schedules that the studentathletes
juggle can be tasking.
Each athlete develops his or
her own regimen and must do
what works best for them.
“I try to schedule my classes early
so I have a space between class and
practice, said women’s basketball
player, Domonique Liddell. “I have
a teammate that has the same class
schedule as me, so we break down
the chapters and teach each other.”
Liddell, a communication major, has
been a top finalist in the university’s
persuasive speaking competition,
Persuasion Contagion, and serves
as the secretary for the SAAC.
These athletes chose Concordia
for a well-rounded education.
“I have a teammate
that has the same
class schedule as me,
so we break down the
chapters and teach
each other.”
“I knew that coming to a small school
would give more opportunities
to get involved and to be a part of
[something]” said Burch. “I loved
the feel, the nature and the size,
especially the smaller classes.”
Many of these student-athletes are
driven individuals. They strive
to be the best they can, by being
leaders on and off the field.
“I just want to be innovative and a
leader in every facet that I’m called
to lead in,” said Schiefelbein. “But
I prefer to lead by example and
the best example to give is [by]
hard work and organization.”
It has certainly been a great year for
Concordia, and looking forward to
the spring season. There is much
anticipation for continued success.
