Nate Miller arrived at Liberty with thoughts that basketball, or perhaps the gridiron to follow in the footsteps of his two brothers, would highlight his prep career.

Hell leave the northern Colorado Springs high school with quite the athletic legacy all right. But in neither of the aforementioned sports.

Basketball was actually my sport growing up, but I wasnt big enough for football, Miller said. I took up tennis instead. I just loved it. As time progressed, I focused on tennis and started taking it seriously. This year, I was able to take it to another level. This will be one of my last chances to play, so I want to go out as well as I can.

Miller, a senior, became quite possibly Libertys first boys singles regional champion Oct.5 when he recorded a 6-2, 7-5 victory over Lakewoods Ram Vuppaladadiyam in the Region 6 championship match in No. 2 singles at Denver East. Lancers coach Joe Frasca didnt witness the feat during his seven years there, and he doubts anyone previously made it to the top at the school known instead for its high-caliber cross country and soccer programs.

Now, its onto the state tournament, where 373 athletes in 5A and 4A head for Denvers Gates Tennis Center and Pueblo City Park, respectively, to compete in the three-day tournament starting Thursday.

Miller, along with Pine Creek junior Zack Inman, represents the only Pikes Peak-area 5A singles players to make it through regional play and into state play.

For these guys to even make it to state is quite an accomplishment, Frasca said. But I know what kind of competitor Nate is. Hes not just happy getting there. Nate wants to be there on Saturday.

Millers breakthrough at Liberty marked another momentous step for the program, which just last year saw its girls team post a school-best seven victories in dual matches and qualified five players to the state tournament.

This is the best season we have ever had, Frasca said. Like Nate, most of my players didnt start tennis until they were in high school and they have improved tremendously the past four years. There is a renaissance happening at Liberty with our tennis programs.

Liberty Silver Comments on SEC Order of Suspension

Class of 2013 student body officers at Liberty Ranch High School have unanimously voted to hold the school's second graduation at Memorial Auditorium.

The decision to hold last year's graduation there caused an upheaval among some school board members concerned with possible higher costs and accessibility of friends and family wishing to attend the ceremony.

To accommodate this school year's graduation location, the Galt Joint Union High School District board of trustees will vote tonight on whether to allow Liberty Ranch to switch graduation dates with Estrellita High School because of a scheduling conflict with Memorial.

Trustees will also be asked to approve the project costs for the graduation ceremony.

Any cost above $4,500 would be borne by the Class of 2013, according to a report to be discussed tonight.

The actual venue contract will come before the school board at a later date, according to Superintendent Matthew Roberts.

He said there was a school-level graduation committee of students, parents, administrators and teachers that researched venues this year. "It is my understanding that graduation has been set for this year," Roberts said.

Trustees Angela DaPrato and Kathleen Amos voted against holding last year's inaugural ceremony in Sacramento.

Amos said it would set a precedence for future graduating classes, and she took issue with holding the event outside city limits when there are city parks and other facilities available.

In the report regarding this school year's ceremony, Principal Brian Deis said students looked at four locations including not only the Liberty Ranch campus, but also Galt High School and the California Correctional Officer training facility on Twin Cities Road.

More than 120 skaters from 14 colleges will compete in the Eastern Intercollegiate figure skating competition on Saturday and Sunday at the Liberty University LaHaye Ice Center.

(PRWEB) October 09, 2012

Liberty last hosted the United States Figure Skating Association regional competition in 2010. The event is free to the public.

We feel so blessed to be able to compete at our home rink again, said Tatiana Payne, Liberty figure skating head coach. We couldn't be more excited to welcome the figure skating teams from other universities coming from locations along the East Coast.

Seven skaters from Libertys team will compete: sophomore Katie Scuilla, junior Kelly Pollock, senior Nicole Hofmeister, and freshmen Fantasia Remonvil, Jenn Goette, Kelsey Reischl, and Amanda Delphia.

They will join skaters from Duke University, Penn State University, Cornell University, Boston University, Johns Hopkins University, East Carolina University, Fordham University, Northeastern University, Sacred Heart University, Towson University, New York University, Dartmouth College, and the University of Delaware.

The skaters will compete in more than 30 individual disciplines over the course of the two-day competition.

It should be a great event with a lot of skating talent, Payne said. This is definitely something that people from the community would love to come and watch.

Competition begins Saturday at 8 a.m. with the preliminary mens free skate. View the full schedule.

Liberty University to Host Figure Skating Competition This Weekend

Here's what matters regarding Liberty-Bakersfield's 28-17 upset of a Bakersfield team then top-ranked in the Central Section and No. 5 in the state:

It virtually guarantees the Central Section's Division I No. 1 seed will come out of the Tri-River Athletic Conference because of Central's 10-9 win at Liberty on Aug. 31.

Further, the TRAC has swept all games of significance against the Southwest Yosemite League -- Clovis beating Centennial (28-17) and Stockdale (37-6), and Clovis North defeating Frontier (38-21).

So, regardless if Central, Clovis North and Clovis -- now ranked Nos. 1-2-3 -- exchange wins in the TRAC, the D-I seedings will refer back to those key TRAC wins vs. the SWYL.

Some other D-I thoughts:

While the weather has finally cooled, three weeks of heat is about to arrive in the TRAC: Clovis at Central on Friday, Central vs. Clovis North at Veterans Memorial Stadium on Oct. 18 and Clovis North at Clovis on Oct. 26.

Defense under coordinator Kevin Johns continues to drive the turnaround at Clovis, which is 23-8 in three seasons after going 5-26 in the previous three.

Friday's 20-0 win over Clovis East was the Cougars eighth shutout since 2010. And this one was led by lineman Nick Nevills, linebacker Jordan Harper and deep backs Jason Black, Alan Crowley and C.J. Broussard.

Clovis marches into Koligian Stadium on Friday in a forward lean, having beaten the Grizzlies 21-7 and 26-0 last year.

For all his success at Edison, Ricky Manning has a problem -- Sanger.

NEWARK, N.J. An internal audit by the Transportation Security Administration gave failing grades to agents at Newark Liberty Airport, adding to a long list of security concerns the New Jersey airport has dealt with.

The recently released audit found that Newark TSA agents followed proper pat-down procedures just 16.7 percent of the time and confiscated banned items from carry-on luggage just 25 percent of the time, according to CBS New York affiliate WCBS.

"Obviously that's a big problem," David Katz of the Global Security Group told CBS correspondent Marcia Kramer Monday. "Newark does seem to have more than its fair share of security issues."

Last May, Homeland Security officials said Newark Liberty was the worst of six major airports when it came to security breaches.

In June, TSA screeners were fired for sleeping on the job when they were supposed to be searching for explosives.

And in August, more than 100 flights were cancelled after a passenger made it through a checkpoint without being screened properly. The airport was similarly shut down for over an hour in April after it was discovered a baby wasn't properly screened.

Katz said he is worried the vulnerabilities exposed in the latest audit may be an open invitation to terrorists looking for a place to strike.

"If they see an area when perhaps we are not doing as good a job as we could, that's where they're going to go," he told WCBS.

The TSA said the report was a "snapshot in time" and that it was working on improving its security.

"This is an agency that evaluates its workforce constantly with an eye toward continuous improvement," a TSA spokesman said.
