PHILADELPHIA, Pa. – The App State men’s and women’s track & field team opened competition at the Penn Relays on Thursday with a new program record and four personal bests on the evening.
 
In the men’s 3,000-meter steeplechase, redshirt senior Calbert Guest stopped the clock at 8:42.01 for a personal best and new school record. Guest surpassed the previous record of 8:51.28, which was set in 2022 by Ryan Brown. In Thursday’s race, Guest placed sixth overall and became the first App State men’s distance athlete to qualify for the USATF Elite Championships.

“Calbert put himself in a position to race and forget about the clock,” said men’s distance coach Brad Herbster. “He competed well tonight and it is a nice accomplishment getting the school record, establishing a regional mark, and obtaining the USA Championship minimum mark. There are big things ahead as we move into the championship season.”

 

Junior Ethan Lipham recorded a personal best of 3:46.82 to win his heat and finish 10th overall in the men’s 1,500 meters. He rose to fourth in the App State all-time list in the event.

 

Senior Emma Russum clocked a personal best of her own with a time of 16:30.30 in the women’s 5,000 meters. She placed 23rd overall and moved to fourth in the program all-time list.

 

With a personal best of 14:13.82, freshman Thomas Wlazlowski rounded out the night, placing 33rd in the men’s 5,000 meters. He remains third in the program top-10 in the event.

 

App State will resume competition at the Penn Relays at noon on Friday with the men’s long jump. The Mountaineers’ first event on the track will be the women’s distance medley relay (DMR) at 12:05 p.m.

‘Catz’s magical season over following loss to Alisal in CCS play-in match

Correction: A previous version of this story said the Watsonville boys’ volleyball team last won a league championship in 2016, which is not true. Watsonville won a league championship in 2022.

The historical run for the Watsonville boys’ volleyball team came to a crushing end following a loss to Alisal in the Central Coast Section postseason play-in match on May 8.  

Despite capturing the Pacific Coast Athletic League Cypress Division crown with a perfect 14-0 record in league play, the Wildcatz still had to claw their way in for a chance to qualify for the playoffs.    

They fell in three sets 25-16, 25-16, 25-18 to the Trojans—third place finishers in the PCAL Gabilan Division, which is two levels above the Cypress. 

“We worked so hard not to lose a single game, and be first within our division,” Watsonville senior and team captain Joshua Anaya said. “I think we should at least be considered to get into CCS rather than having to fight a team that’s third, not even the first [place] team in a different division.” 

Anaya and his fellow ‘Catz teammates put up a fight for most of the match, yet they were highly outmatched by a more seasoned Alisal squad that competed in the PCAL’s top tier this season. 

“The thing that makes it challenging is because a couple of us are young,” Anaya said. “The whole team for Aliso plays club, so it’s just a different tempo, different background to that.” 

Watsonville head coach Crystal Cornejo-Perez wasn’t too keen on having to play the Trojans, who had already swept the ‘Catz in three sets on March 11.  

“The boys definitely improved over the season, they did much better today,” she said. “I think we could have done better, but I also think it kind of sucks that we got set up with one of the top dogs in the toughest [division]. Just kind of felt they always try to shut the little ones out.”

The ‘Catz finished with a 15-9 overall record, including last week’s CCS play-in loss. It was a dramatic turnaround season for them after they finished with a 5-15 overall record in 2024, and placed fifth in the Mission Division with a 3-9 record in league play. 

This year they nearly swept through the Cypress Division by losing just five sets in league play, and en route to the program’s first league title since 2022 and third championship overall. 

“I wasn’t expecting much, however, I’m incredibly proud how far we’ve actually come,” Anaya said. “I think it’s a huge accomplishment coming from being a freshman going to CCS, and then finishing it off going to a play-in [match] senior year.” 

The closest match for them was a victory over Pajaro Valley in five 25-16, 25-12, 26-28, 22-25, 15-11 on April 28. Anaya had 15 kills and 16 digs that evening, while teammate junior Logan Franc finished with 20 kills and 11 digs.

“Repspectfully, the competition wasn’t as high as I expected,” Cornejo-Perez said. “Other schools were struggling with getting boys’ volleyball, so they had a lot of new players, as well. Luckily we had those experienced players that formed the little ones and taught them.”

However, the ‘Catz did finish 1-8 in non-league play with losses to formidable opponents such as Salians out of the PCAL Gabilan, and Mission Division champion Palma.

Alisal along with Palma each qualified and lost in the CCS playoffs that featured just three divisions: Open Division, D-I and D-II. Each one of those divisions was packed with even more challenging opponents from far and near. 

Perhaps it was the lack of experience, and strength of schedule, that caught up to this young group of ‘Catz. But either way, they should have a bright future ahead of them.

“It was rough from the start but it continued to go on, I think we built a family together,” Anaya said. “We were discouraged a little bit, however, each individual has grown so much. Overall, that was the important part of being able to play on this team, being together as one.” 

Anaya this season led the ‘Catz with 150 total kills and 43 served aces, and was second on the team with 112 digs, according to statistics on the Monterey Bay Preps website. Franc finished with a team-best 136 digs to go along with 40 aces and 131 kills, finishing just behind Anaya.

“As much as we joke around and everything, sometimes it’s time to be serious,” Anaya said. “However, we still have that mentality of we’re here for fun. We all hang out together, play video games. Just building that bond, knowing that we have each other’s backs.”

Other ‘Catz standouts this season included sophomore Ricardo Ramirez, who led the team with 251 assists, and senior Diego Hidalgo with 170 assists. Teammate senior Andres Cardenas was also a big contributor as he finished with 74 kills, 60 digs and 32 aces for Watsonville.

The rest of the group was made up of rising underclassmen in sophomores Edwin Cornejo and Danny Lopez, and freshmen Kaiden Peña and Khriss Reyes.  

“I felt it was a really young, inexperienced team, and I was really surprised with the outcome this year,” Cornejo-Perez said. “I was just gonna go with the flow, see what the season brought us. But the boys really impressed me, and they really took it home.”

The pushback over fewer volleyball nets at Golden Gate Park

You might soon see fewer volleyball nets at San Francisco’s Golden Gate Park.

That’s because the city’s Recreation and Parks Department changed the rules, which is being met with pushback.

On any given day, dozens of volleyball nets are set up at the popular park with hundreds of players spiking and setting the ball for hours. 

And up until  now, there were very few rules at the park: People could set up a volleyball net just about anywhere where there’s space.

But San Francisco officials say all that wear-and-tear was too tough on the grass.

And they made some changes.

During odd-numbered months, you can set up nets in Peacock, Bunny and Sunbathers meadows.

And in the even months, you can set up at Robin Williams Meadow and Upper Big Rec Fields.

Outside of these time windows, you need a permit.

“Sometimes, large groups in parks are great and we appreciate the enthusiasm and we love to see people outdoors, enjoying themselves,” said SF Recs and Park spokesman Daniel Montes. “But sometimes, large groups can create wear and tear on the grass and impact shared space for other users.” 

The big turn-off for volleyball players is that there is only be a maximum of four nets per area, meaning a total of eight to 12 nets for the entire 1,000-acre park, when the community is used to dozens.

During a Recs and Park commission this week, many volleyball players spoke out.

“Grass volleyball is now the topic of discussion,” one person said. “However, unlike pickleball or roller skating, we’re not asking you to commit funds to build us a grass volleyball court or facility, we’re simply seeking reasonable rules and reasonable access.” 

If you break the rules, officials want to warn and inform you. But in the most extreme cases, you could face a citation.

Members of the volleyball community say they are actively meeting with park leaders to come up with better solutions.

Bulgarian Volleyball Sensation Moni Nikolov Announces Departure From Long Beach State To Turn Pro – The562.org

The562’s coverage of Long Beach State athletics for the 2023-24 season is sponsored by Marilyn Bohl.

It became one of the greatest single seasons in NCAA men’s volleyball history when Long Beach State’s Moni Nikolov stepped off the court Monday night—adding a national championship to his already impressive list of accolades from his freshman season. That’s when the question that had loomed all season came to the forefront of his career: Was this the last time we’d see Nikolov in the Black and Gold?

The Bulgarian sensation has gone viral throughout his debut season, with new clips reaching millions of views after each match—played in front of sold-out crowds virtually everywhere the Beach competed. That attention has, of course, reached professional volleyball clubs across the globe, and many have speculated about his departure, expecting him to accept a high-level offer to play professionally.

Just four days after becoming a national champion, Nikolov confirmed those speculations, taking to Instagram to announce his departure from Long Beach State. Nikolov has not announced where he’ll continue his volleyball career.

“Every moment here has mattered. And leaving with a national title is more than I could’ve asked for. With gratitude and pride, thank you, Long Beach,” he wrote.

“It’s always exciting for your players to take any and all opportunities that will allow them to expect greatness in their life. That’s what our program is built on,” said LBSU coach Alan Knipe. “At this point, the options he has available to him are those that very few athletes get. As much as Long Beach State and myself would love to see him stick around and compete for us, he gets the opportunity to fulfill another one of his dreams and get himself ready to try and qualify for the Los Angeles Olympics in 2028. I’m excited for him and what lies in front of him.”

Knipe has seen this story pan out before—when Nikolov’s older brother, Alex, went one-and-done at Long Beach State as a freshman in 2022. Together, the brothers have left behind a remarkable legacy at the Beach, becoming the only two players in NCAA history to win AVCA National Player of the Year honors as freshmen.

Both brothers also walked away with AVCA Newcomer of the Year and Big West Player of the Year honors. Moni added NCAA All-Tournament MVP honors to his resume on Monday night, capping off an incredible era of Nikolov volleyball in Long Beach.

“It speaks for itself,” Knipe said of the brothers’ accomplishments. “There are two players in NCAA history who achieved Player of the Year and Newcomer of the Year in the same season. They’re both from Long Beach State, and they’re both from the same family. Enough said. It’s a very special feat.”

It was Moni’s 6-foot-10 frame and remarkable athleticism at the setter position that made him the face of volleyball in the country this year. His soft hands, capable of delivering pinpoint sets, combined with the imposing height and physicality of an outside hitter, made him a nightmare for opposing teams.

Nikolov steps away from the NCAA scene after leading the Beach to a nation-best .398 hitting percentage. He finished fourth in the nation in assists this year with 1,030 (10 per set), while also averaging 1.56 kills per set. Nikolov also recorded the fastest serve in NCAA history at 84 mph, and became the new single-season aces record holder. He finished with 106 aces—breaking Curtis Abram’s 2011 record in 15 fewer sets.

“I think this was the most impactful season anyone’s been able to have,” Knipe said. “What he was able to do from the end line to the new reinvention of what the setting position looks like…The other side is the attention to men’s volleyball and the sellout arenas throughout the country that we played in. I think its gonna be hard for someone to find a player with a bigger impact in one season. And to do that in your freshman year is even more spectacular.”

After his championship win on Monday night, Nikolov called it “the best year of my life,” he told ESPN. Today, Nikolov took to social media to thank his coaches, the fans, and his teammates, whom he refers to as his brothers. 

“Dear Long Beach,” he wrote. “From day one, you gave me the tools to succeed on the court. I leave here not just with a championship, but with growth, perspective, and lifelong memories.”

The departure closes the door on the Nikolov era, during which the brothers set a new standard for what had already been one of the best programs in the nation. Many will now remember the Beach because of the Nikolovs, just as the Nikolovs will always remember the Beach. Take it from their father:

“At Long Beach, Alex and Moni were truly satisfied with everything,” he said. “The coaching staff, the teachers, the whole campus, and the people—everything. They love the Long Beach family.”

CLARKSVILLE, Tenn. – Austin Peay State University’s student-athletes posted the second-highest grade-point average in department history with a 3.401 grade-point average during the Spring 2025 semester.

“After posting the second-best GPA in department history during the fall, our student-athletes have done it again by topping that mark this semester,” said Austin Peay Vice President and Director of Athletics Gerald Harrison. “I am so proud of our Governors student-athletes and all their hard work during this record-breaking semester! However, none of this would be possible without the hard work of our student-athlete success team, so I want to thank Kristal McGreggor, Bobby Fieman, and Kendell Johnson. Our student-athletes and entire department’s continued commitment to the ‘Total Gov Concept’ can be seen in this sustained academic success.

It is the 16th consecutive semester the APSU athletics department has posted a 3.0 GPA or better and the 19th time in department history. All 15 Austin Peay varsity programs recorded at least a 3.0 GPA or better for the second-straight semester. In addition, the Governors’ cheer team also posted a 3.0 GPA or better for the second-consecutive semester.

Austin Peay also had nine teams finish with a 3.5-or-better team GPA, with two teams posting program record GPAs. The Governors women’s golf team led all programs for the second-straight semester with a 3.969 GPA – the highest single-semester GPA in department history, topping the previous record of 3.964, which was held by the women’s tennis team during the fall 2017 semester.

More than 80 percent of the department’s student-athletes received academic recognition. Seventy-eight of its 338 student-athletes posted a 4.0 GPA during the spring and were a part of the 151 student-athletes eligible for Austin Peay’s Dean’s List recognition, which the university will announce at a later date. Another 120 Governors were named to the Athletic Director’s Honor Roll, which is awarded to graduate students with a 3.0 GPA and undergraduate student-athletes who finish a semester with a 3.0 GPA but do not qualify for the APSU Dean’s List.

A complete listing of the Spring 2025 Athletics Director’s Honor Roll follows this release. Individuals eligible for the Austin Peay Dean’s List are also noted.

Established in 1990-91, the Athletics Director’s Honor Roll recognizes the outstanding academic accomplishments of Austin Peay State University student-athletes. Student-athletes must be enrolled full-time and achieve a 3.0 grade-point average for a semester to earn recognition.

ACADEMIC HIGHLIGHTS FROM THE SPRING SEMESTER

  • PERFECT, PERFECT, PERFECT. 78 Governors student-athletes posted a 4.0 GPA – the ninth time 60 or more student-athletes have posted an unblemished GPA.
  • ALL HAIL. Six Austin Peay teams – women’s basketball, women’s golf, men’s tennis, women’s tennis, women’s cross country, and beach volleyball – saw their entire rosters post a 3.0 GPA or better and earn academic recognition. The women’s golf team was the only program to have 100 percent of their student-athletes qualify for the APSU Dean’s List.
  • SMASH! BANG! Two Austin Peay teams – women’s golf and men’s cross country – set team semester GPA records.
  • ON A ROLL. Sixteen varsity teams’ current streak of semesters with a 3.0 GPA (beginning in Fall 2013): baseball (18), beach volleyball (17), men’s basketball (2), women’s basketball (3), men’s cross country (3), women’s cross country (14), football (2), men’s golf (18), women’s golf (24), soccer (24), softball (20), men’s tennis (24), women’s tennis (24), women’s track & field (14), volleyball (24), and cheer (2).

MEDINA, Ohio – The Medina Community Recreation Center recently learned they were successful in obtaining a grant from the USA Water Polo Association and the center is now planning to create a youth water polo league.

Parks and Recreation Director Jansen Wehrley announced last month that the city was looking to pursue the $4,000 grant which will fund the purchase of water polo goals for the rec center’s competition pool.

“There is no formalized water polo in our area, but we have an individual in the hiring process who recently moved to Medina from Utah,” Wehrley said. “He has a lot of experience in doing this and turned us on to the grant.”

The first step in building the league will be to create co-ed water polo practice teams for ages 12 and up and ages 14 and up. According to a press release from the rec center, these teams will learn teamwork and build strength. Training classes will begin May 27 and will run through June 28 Tuesday and Thursday from 6:30 to 8 p.m. at the rec center. Scholarships are available.

The rec center also plans to offer a Splashball program for children ages 8 to 10. This program is designed to provide basic skills and understanding of the sport. Splashball classes will begin May 27 and will run through June 26 on Tuesday and Thursday from 5:30 to 6:15 p.m.

For more information about the program contact Medina Rec Aquatics Manager Steve Rhein at 330-721-6937 or srhein@medinaoh.org.
