Cross Country
The NCAA Division II South Region Cross Country Championships took place on Saturday November fourth, hosted by Christian Brothers University in Memphis, Tennessee. Despite a challenging course and weather conditions, Rollins' own Kristina Aronson took forty-eighth out of one hundred and fifty competitors with a time of 24:56. This was the sophomore's second appearance; last year she was thirty-third in the South Region.
Golf
Men's
Rollins came in seventh at the Stetson/CFSC Invitational on Monday the sixth and Tuesday the seventh at host Stetson in Deland, Florida. The team had a tournament total of 922 strokes. Tournament champion Kennesaw State shot 899, followed closely by Bethune-Cookman with a stroke total of 905 and Stetson came in third with 915 strokes. Rollins experienced more success on the individual level; junior Daniel Laughlin came in under par in the last two rounds of play to earn medalist honors for the first time, winning the tournament. David DeNunzio was the only other Tar in the top twenty when he tied for eighteenth place. This was the last tournament on the Tars fall schedule. They return in March.
Soccer
The men's soccer team lost 3-0 to Lynn University at the University of West Florida on Friday November third. This eliminated the team in the first round of the NCAA Division II Tournament. Lynn scored two girls in the second half to pull ahead and Rollins' offense was shut down by one of the best defenses in the tournament all game. Rollins finished the 2006 season with an overall record of 13-6, and posted their third postseason appearance in the last four years. Friday's game was the last for Tars' senior Chris Cerroni, Eric Vergati, and Juan Kusnir along with eight others.
