The Rhodes College Athletics Department held its annual Athletics Banquet Wednesday night, April 28, in which each sport is recognized and awards are given for both athletic and academic achievments. It is an opportunity to celebrate the accomplishments of these student-athletes as they've balanced inter-collegiate competition with a rigorous academia.

On Thursday, March 25th, under the lights at the Mike Rose Soccer Stadium, Rhodes defeated Colaiste Ide from Ireland 2-0. Junior Nick Bailey scored both goals with assists from Freshmen Colby Bowles and Ben Owens. The game was a competitive event, as usual, but it was the Lynx who were able to find the net twice and could have had two more goals if not for excellent Irish goalkeeping. The three Lynx goalkeepers, Junior Justin Stradley and Freshmen Zach Fernberger and Will Lay, combined for the shutout, the first against the Irish since 2003. This year marks the 11th consecutive year that Rhodes has played the Irish College of Further Education.
