Top 10 spring time clubs

Sports Countdown

The AU sports desk would like to give kudos to the AU Gentlemen's Club for bringing a baseball presence to this campus. For too long, we've been shortchanged when it comes to a variety of intramural and team sports. With any luck, that will change this spring. As a service to AU, here are the Top Ten sporting events that we feel should happen sometime in the next six weeks.

10. Inter-fraternity cheerleading competitions, with the uniforms and all.

9. Put those pesky AOL CDs to good use in a modified game of Ultimate Frisbee.

8. Two words: wheelchair rugby.

7. Post-thunderstorm mud wrestling matches on the Quad.

6. The Mike Tyson Olympics: Weightlifting and trash-talking competitions between the burly-but-squeaky-voiced bodybuilders from the Fitness Center.

5. The 50-yard dash past the amphitheater area to avoid the serial groper.

4. Increase campus interest in starting a women's softball team, with a school-sponsored 'Get to Third Base with an AU Female Athlete' event.

3. The AU College Democrats president versus the College Republicans president in a boxing match, winner's party takes control of student government.

2. Rooftop tug-of-war contests between Letts Hall and Anderson Hall.

1. Put Lehigh jerseys on five midgets, and let Men's Basketball player Andres Rodriguez get his revenge.
