Twenty-three flags line the walls of Frailey Pool, each one symbolizing a country that has been represented by a student-athlete on the AU swim team. When Caylee Watson joined the team two years ago, swimming head coach Mark Davin added a new flag to represent her home -- the U.S. Virgin Islands. Just last month, Watson, now a junior in the School of Public Affairs, earned an honor much bigger than a flag: a spot on the U.S. Virgin Islands Olympic team.

Olympic champion Mark Spitz once said, “Life is true to form; records are meant to be broken,” and his phrase sums up the 2015 athletic season for the Eagles. AU captured two Patriot League championships and sent two teams and two individual athletes to the NCAA tournament. Four Eagles won Patriot League Scholar Athletes of the Year awards, and Athletic Director Billy Walker earned a place in the National Wrestling Hall of Fame. AU made history in 2015, and The Eagle has compiled the highlights.
Just several days after the first members of the AU Class of 2020 received their early decision acceptance letters, The Eagle reflects on the events that shaped the fall semester for the current campus community. 2015 proved to be a big year for the school, full of both controversy and progress. With lots of events lined up for 2016, here’s a look back at the headlines that shaped the first half of the school year.

As the temperature starts to drop and the winter weather makes its way to D.C., The Eagle caught up with freshman guard Kaitlyn Lewis to talk about her goals, career aspirations and superstitions. Lewis has logged over a dozen minutes in four games so far this year and said she looks forward to playing conference teams at the end of the month. Lewis said the speed of the college game has created new challenges, but her teammates and coaches are helping her learn additional skills to adapt to the increased pace of play.
For 27 years, head coach Barry Goldberg has stood at the helm of the AU women’s volleyball program and helped the Eagles earn 13 Patriot League titles and two Colonial Athletic Association conference championships. Goldberg and his team made history in 2013 after winning two NCAA tournament games, and the longtime coach looks forward to coaching the team in this year’s tournament as well. The Eagles take on the University of Kentucky tonight at 4:30 p.m. in Columbus, Ohio, and Goldberg said he expects the match to be challenging because of Kentucky’s size and athleticism on the court.
