by Joel Hammond THE BG MEMS For some students at Bowling Green, getting here is not as easy as one might think. For example, when a supervisor asked attendees at a work meeting last Friday who had driven the longest to get to school, • shouts of "Texas!" and "Florida" rang through the crowd. Wimen's soccer head coach Andy Richards would have received the binoculars the supervisor was giving away, and his assistant Ashlee Orr would have taken home the consola- tion prize. The two, in their second year at the helm of the program, have both come quite a long way to land in the land of the Falcons. Richards gradu- ated from Sheffield Polytechnic in Sheffield, England, in 1989, and pro- ceeded to travel across the Atlantic, across the Great Plains, and ending in Corvallis, before he became J gradu- ate assistant at Oregon State. He then became the full-time assistant and served in that position for five years before takingMhe head job here in April of 2000. Orr also has made her rounds around the country. She is a native of Brecksville, Ohio, and attended the U.S. Naval Academy for two years, where she started 35 of 37 matches in which she played. After transferring to Ohio State University, she lettered her junior year and was elected team File photo BG fern captain in 1998 but was unable to fin- ish her career because of an injury.
