Progress in the Making

BY: Alex Roberson The Auburn University at Montgomery (AUM) softball season has been remarkable to watch lately. The success of the team keeps getting better and better. Their overall record is 24-6 with a 12-3 record in conference play. In the Gulf South Conference (GSC), the team still sits in the top three seeds within the conference. There are still a lot of games left to contribute to the great season so far. The team suffered a disappointing 5-9 loss against Embry-Riddle University at the Embry-Riddle Tournament early in the season. As the Warhawks shook off the loss, they had…

University of Alabama vs IONA University

University of Alabama vs IONA University

BY: Randy Dunn As Alabama’s Crimson Tide continued to roll through March Madness, they gained experience and confidence even though the odds were against them nightly. When playing against the Iona Gaels on March 20, the Tide continued its hot streak of dominance. SEC Player of the Year Herb Jones gave the Tide another miraculous performance with 20 PTS, 6 RBS, and 2 AST. With Alabama shooting nearly 50% from the floor at 42.7%, it was a long night defensively for Iona. They had a rough night, shooting only 39% from the floor. Although Bama was hot all year from…

AUM Women’s Basketball Season Recap

AUM Women’s Basketball Season Recap

BY: Randy Dunn The Lady Warhawks had a very rough start and finish to this season. After finishing 12-16 and having some sparks of great play, they finished the 2020 season 2-13. A big factor that played a part in this disappointing season was COVID-19. The protocols and rules coming into play limited the Warhawks when it came to practicing and being able to become more solid as a team. Last year, the Warhawks had many junior and senior leaders who knew how to win when games got tough and close. Unfortunately, this year this team was noticeably young and…

AUM Men’s Basketball Season Comes to a Wrap

AUM Men’s Basketball Season Comes to a Wrap

BY: Randy Dunn With the Warhawks’ basketball season coming to an end it did not come with a conference championship or even an invite to the playoffs. Although they came short of those goals and ended the season with a 3-14 record, not all is lost. A big factor that played a part in this disappointing season was COVID-19. The protocols and rules coming into play limited the Warhawks when it came to practicing and being able to become more solid as a team because of the team’s inexperience with only three seniors returning to the roster. Last year, the…

Take In Every Moment

BY: Hannah Long COVID-19 has impacted everyone’s lives. For AUM Women’s Soccer, it has impacted their season.  The team plays roughly 17 games each season,and more if they make it to the GSC tournament. During this season, the Lady Warhawks were allowed only six conference games with a one-game guarantee in the playoff tournament. This is not a way the seniors wanted to end their season.  Senior Ali Brewer spoke with me about her senior year and how she wishes things were different. “Yes we are lucky to even have a season, but with only playing six games it is…

BY: Randy Dunn The AUM Warhawks are coming back home to play against the University of West Florida Argonauts after a four-game road trip. Although the gym won’t be packed, just being back home under their own lights with familiar routines will help the Warhawks in a great way. This will be the third matchup of the COVID impacted season. Both teams grabbed a win in the first two games. Maharrith Jackson (#0 Senior Guard), Stanley Davis(#12 RS Senior Guard) and Jeremiah Bozeman (#22 Senior Guard) will continue to lead this young Warhawks team, as they are the only three…
