Covenant Men's Soccer, Volleyball Named USA South Sportsmanship Recipients

For a fourth consecutive year, the Covenant men's soccer team has earned the USA South Sportsmanship award for its sport while the Covenant volleyball team picked up its second consecutive Sportsmanship honor, announced the conference on Monday.

During the 2004-05 academic year the USA South Athletic Conference Student-Athlete Advisory Committee (SAAC) instituted a conference-wide Sportsmanship Award.
Mary Baldwin collected the award for women's soccer for the fifth consecutive season, while Greensboro earned the honor in the sport of football.

The conference hands out a Sportsmanship Award for 11 conference-sponsored team sports. Men's and women's cross country, along with men's golf, are not included due to a lack of a conference schedule in those particular sports. For each of the other sports, all team members vote for the teams he/she deemed to have demonstrated the best overall sportsmanship throughout the season. The team garnering the most votes receives that sports' Sportsmanship Award.

The institution which wins the most individual sport awards will be presented with the overall USA South Sportsmanship Trophy. The award was developed as a result of the SAAC's commitment to maintaining a sportsmanlike environment on each of our campuses. Covenant has claimed at least a share of the USA South Sportsmanship Trophy in each of the last three years.

The Student-Athlete Advisory Committee hopes that by awarding a Sportsmanship Award, the members of the USA South will understand the importance of this issue. It is vital that good sportsmanship be demonstrated in the arena of competition.
