SEASON PREVIEW AND COACHING STAFF

WOMEN’S GOLF TEAM LOOKSFOR “THREE-PEAT”

The Olivet College women’s golf team captured its secondstraight Michigan Intercollegiate Athletic Association (MIAA)championship in 2007. With six golfers from last year’s teamreturning in 2008, the obvious goal for the Comets is to “three-peat” and win anotherchampionship.

Along with winning thechampionship each of the last twoyears, Olivet has also won theMIAA’s playoff during the springand advanced to the NCAADivis ion I I I Nat ionalChampionships. In 2007, theComets placed ninth, while in2008, they slipped two spots tofinish in 11th-place. Therefore,another goal for Olivet is to getback to the nat ionalchampionships next May andfinish higher in the standings.

Leading the way for theComets in 2008 are seniorsTrisha McKim (DeWit t ) andLindsay Pipkin (White Lake/Lakeland). The duo has been thefoundation for the success of thewomen’s golf program.

McKim and Pipkin are each three-time All-MIAA golfers. McKimwas a 2005 and 2006 first-team selection and a 2007 second-teamselection. Pipkin has earned first-team honors three times alongwith being a 2006-07 All-Great Lakes Region selection.

HEAD COACH BILL MAASBill Maas is in his sixth season as

Olivet’s head women’s golf coach. Healso serves the athletic department asNCAA comp l iance coo rd ina to r andacademic counselor.

Maas has steadily built Olivet intothe top women’s golf program in theMich igan In te rco l l eg ia te A th le t i cAssoc ia t i on (MIAA) . Las t yea r, t he

Comets captured their second straight MIAA championship andberth to the NCAA Division III National Championships. In 2008,Olivet was 11th at the national championships. In 2007, theComets placed ninth at nationals and were only one strokebehind the eighth-place finisher. The team’s rise to the top spotin the MIAA came after runner-up finishes in 2004 and 2005.

Maas is a 1989 graduate of Olivet. He resides in Olivetwith wife, Amy. He is the assistant fire chief for the city of Olivet.

Last fall, Pipkin had an 81.9 stroke average in 14 rounds, whileMcKim had an 85.9 average. During the spring, Pipkin posted an84.5 average in 11 rounds, while McKim finished with an 87.5average. In the final round of the NCAA Championships last spring,

McKim tied the individual 18-holeschool record with a 74.

Junior Megan Rimmel(Ithaca) returns after earning first-team All-MIAA honors in each ofher first two years. After recordingan 85.1 stroke average during thefall, she lowered her average to83.7 in the spring.

Fellow junior Katie Misko(Alma) has not been a part of thestarting five the last two years, butis expected to contend for a spotin that lineup this fall. In 12 roundsas an individual scorer last year,she totaled 1,065 strokes for an88.8 average.

Sophomore Amber Conrad(Battle Creek/Harper Creek) hadan exceptional rookie season atOlivet, earning first-team All-MIAAhonors. She was the onlyfreshman in the MIAA to earn that

honor. Conrad had an 84.9 average, including a team-low 82.4average, during the fall season. In the spring, her average slippedto 87.0. Sophomore Abby Wheeler (Grayling) is also expected tobattle for time in the starting five.

MICHIGAN INTERCOLLEGIATE ATHLETIC ASSOCIATION

The Michigan Intercollegiate Athletic Association(MIAA) is America’s o ldest col legiate ath let icconference.

The 2008-09 school year marks the 122ndconsecutive year of operation for the NCAA Division IIIaffiliated conference. The MIAA was founded March 24,1888. From the very beginning, the MIAA has conductedfull-season championships in multiple sports. Therehave been changes in some of the sports (bicycle racingand Indian club juggling have long since disappeared,and basketball did not even exist in 1888), but thesechanges have served to develop the MIAA into one ofAmerica’s finest NCAA Division III conferences, todayoffering 18 sports for men and women.

The MIAA’s continuity is noteworthy. Of the 12schools that have had full membership, eight are stillmembers — Adrian, Albion, Alma, Calvin, Hope,Kalamazoo, Olivet, and Saint Mary’s. Significantly, notone of these eight colleges has ever belonged to anyother formal league. Albion and Olivet were chartermembers although Albion is the only member to holdcontinuous membership. Ex-members are MichiganState University (1888-1907), Eastern MichiganUniversity (1892-1926), Hillsdale College (1888-1960),and Defiance College (1997-2000).

The MIAA’s membership list went unchanged from1960 until 1997 when the Defiance College of Ohio andSaint Mary’s College of Indiana were invited to join. Italso marked the first time that the league addedmembers outside the state of Michigan. The leaguestipulated, however, that the name of the conferencewould not change. The inaugural year of currentmembers are: Adrian (1908), Albion (1888), Alma(1902), Calvin (1953), Hope (1926), Kalamazoo (1896),Olivet (1888), and Saint Mary’s (1997).

The MIAA marked a historic note in 2002 whenthe league accepted Wisconsin Lutheran College ofMilwaukee as an associate member for the purpose ofcompeting in football. Wisconsin Lutheran left the MIAAafter the 2007 season to join the Northern AthleticsConference.

Trine Universi ty of Angola, Ind., became aconference member in 2004-05 upon its acceptance asa provisional NCAA member.
