Twas a Few Days Before Christmas

Finally catching up on some of the backlog of work in the SID office. I hope to get better at posting things to this blog in 2009!

Here is one item to keep note of over the holiday break.

The 2008 Division II national field hockey player of the year, Jamie Vanartsdalen from Bloomsburg University, will be one of the student-athletes featured on the national TV broadcast of "CBS Sports Presents Championships of the NCAA" that will air at 2:00 p.m. Eastern time, Saturday, December 27, on CBS (in the Bloomsburg area on WYOU-TV).

Vanartsdalen will be featured for her outstanding career that took her from walk-on four years ago to the all-time scoring leader in division II field hockey history and one of the most prolific scorers ever in all divisions of collegiate field hockey.

Also, highlights and stories from cross country, soccer and volleyball will be featured in the program. For the 2008-09 academic year, CBS Sports will feature over 40 of the NCAA’s 88 championships in the three seasonal shows. For the sixth consecutive year, all 88 National Collegiate Athletic Association championships will receive television exposure, including 10 fall sports to be featured in a one-hour special.

Have a great holiday season and a happy new year from the sports information office at Bloomsburg. Let's hope 2009 is as successful as 2008 was for the Huskies!
