FCA guides athletes
♦ Fellowship of
Christian Athletes
plays an important
role with students.
By Marquese Brown
Sports Writer
Many people have a common stereotypical view of college athletes:
They are wonderful physical specimens, graceful in their domain and a
joy to watch.Yet many are self-centered and lack desire when it comes
to being in tune with religion and
spirituality.
Brandon Bakke and a number of
other student athletes on campus
hope to change that misconception.
Bakke,a guard on the bulldog basketball team, has been a member for
the past two years. He is the current
vice-president of the Fresno chapter
of FCA.
FCA, the longest running Christian sports organization, has a chapter on every college campus in the
country. FCA has been on Fresno
State's campus for about 20 years.
The organization usually meets
once or twice a week for athletes to
set aside all of their personal prob
lems and achievements and give glory
to God.
The Fresno chapter was started by
Dick Francis the former bulldog head
wrestling coach.
"It began as just a Monday night
bible study," Bakke said, "but over
the years, because there has been a
lot more interest, we've expanded
it."
Bulldog Assistant Track Coach
Bob Fraley now runs FCA and its
members represent a number of
sports.
"It helps you feel good
about yourself."
- De Andre Austin, FCA
Tanya Dooley, a member of the
bulldog track team and a 400 meter
Ail-American, is FCA's president
Trent Dilfer, quarterback of the
football team, baseball player Eric
Newman and pole vaulter David Cox
are just a few of FCA's members.
DeAndre Austin, another guard
on the basketball team, says being
involved in FCA makes him proud.
"It helps you feel good about your-
self." be said." Givingglory to God is
something you should be proud of."
FCA now meets on Monday and
Wednesday nights. Monday's meetings are held at coach Fraley's house
and are open to everyone. They are
about thirty people in attendance.
Wednesday's meetings are held at
Bakke's apartment, near campus,
and are only open to baseball, football and basketball players. About
half as many people attend Bakke's
meetings as do Fraley's.
FCA has a guest speaker once a
month at the Picadilly Inn Hotel. In
^^^^^^^^^ February it
■ was Bubba
Paris, offensive lineman
for the India-
n a p o 1 i s
Colts. Last
Tuesday it
| was Kenneth
Lovely,
former Bulldog football player who
is now a Pastor. There were approximately 80 people in attendance.
FCA is planning a prayer breakfast on May 11. A location has not
been established yet, but they hope to
get between 400-500 guests.
Bakke says FCA's only goal is for
the organization to continue to grow.
"If we continue to grow this means
that more and more people are getting excited about God."
Will March showers bring April flowers?
♦ Rain halts play; 'Dogs open long homestand in the month of April
By Fred Lee
Sports Editor
Early season rain showers postponed
two of Fresno State's games with San
Diego State last week. This could be a
blessing in disguise.
The 'Dogs opened a long 17-gamc
homestand yesterday, a much needed
homesiand since the 'Dogs are playing
twice as good at home than they arc on
the road this year.
RHP Steve Soderstrom, a pre-sea-
son All-American, has had some tightness in his right elbow and could use
the time-off to rest and gel stronger.
LHP Mike Salazar has been a pleasant
surprise winning his last five starts. He
went 2-0 and struck out 18 batters in 18
innings in the Pepsi/Johnny Quik Classic.
Junior left-fielder Brad Dandridge
has been on a tear increasing his batting
average over 100 points in the last 22
games. He has started all 29 games for
the Dogs this season, leading them in
runs, homers and RBI's.
