\"Tiger<\/a>An Inside, In-Depth Look at Tiger Hockey \u2014 On Film<\/strong><\/h3>\n

Check this out, Colorado College alumni and hockey fans. Here\u2019s a treat you won\u2019t want to miss.<\/p>\n

Relive your favorite team\u2019s history, as told by those actually responsible for the story, as it never has been seen or heard before.<\/p>\n

Recently released in DVD format, \u201cTiger Pride \u2014 Eight Decades of CC Hockey\u201d traces the program\u2019s evolution from a rag-tag industrial league outfit in the mid-1930s through its two national championships in the 1950s to its present-day status as a perennial powerhouse in the ranks of NCAA Division I.<\/p>\n

On sale ($14.95) at http:\/\/www.rivalfilms.com\/store\/<\/a><\/strong>, the DVDs also are available at the CC bookstore, as well as at the Colorado Springs World Arena during home games.<\/p>\n

The movie is narrated by Mike \u201cDoc\u201d Emrick, Hall of Fame announcer and the voice of the NHL on NBC and Versus. Produced by Rival Films, LLC,<\/em> it features interviews with players, coaches, and administrators involved with the team from as far back as 1937. And, thanks to a unique behind-the-scenes approach that utilizes archived photographs as well as extremely rare video footage, viewers will experience an inside, in-depth look at how Tiger Hockey became what it is today.<\/p>\n

\u201cTiger Pride \u2014\u00a0Eight Decades of CC Hockey\u201d also will air on the NHL Network.<\/p>\n

Note: This film evolved from a project that originally was meant to feature Colorado College\u2019s rivalry on the ice with the University of Denver. Plans for that movie were scrapped, and a new direction taken, in August due to a breakdown in negotiations between DU and the filmmaker.<\/p>\n

Women\u2019s Soccer<\/strong><\/h3>\n

While CC tied for eighth place in Conference USA and fell short of qualifying for the league playoffs, a number of Tigers earned impressive post-season accolades.<\/p>\n

Defender Sydney Fetter \u201811<\/strong>, an economics major with a cumulative GPA of 3.80, was named to the ESPN Academic All-District 7 (University Division) first team by the College Sports Information Directors of America and officially became a candidate for Academic All-America distinction.<\/p>\n

Volleyball<\/h3>\n

Colorado College earned its 13th consecutive berth in the\u00a0NCAA Division III playoffs by winning the SCAC tournament and received the top seed in its regional for the\u00a0second year in a row.

The team has posted\u00a0back-to-back 30-win seasons for the first time in program\u00a0history.<\/p>\n

Men\u2019s Soccer<\/h3>\n

CC celebrated 60 years of men\u2019s soccer with a reception following the game against Carnegie Mellon University on Sept. 17. More than 100 former players, administrators, families, and supporters were among those in attendance. After remarks by head coach Horst Richardson, several former players shared memories from their careers. Scrapbooks and other artifacts\u00a0from many of the 60 years were on display. Colorado College\u00a0has made 18 NCAA tournament appearances at both the Division I and III levels, including a trip to the 1992 DIII national semifinals, and won several RMISL titles \u2014 including the league\u2019s final championship in 1991 \u2014 while playing against the likes of Air Force, the University of Denver, and the Colorado School of Mines. The program also has produced more than 30 Phi Beta Kappa Scholars, Academic All-Americans, two Fulbright Scholars, and many other recipients of academic awards. On the pitch, six different Tigers earned All-America honors, including Carnegie Mellon head coach Arron Lujan<\/strong> \u201995<\/strong>, who was recognized in 1994.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
