radition. Excellence. Success. Those are the words that come to mind when one thinks about athlet ics at Grand Valley State University. Those three Twords constitute the way GVSU projects its athletic and academic prowess to its students, other universities and surrounding communities. And in the university’s recent athletic history, it’s been difficult to argue against that image. Since 2002, GVSU has garnered 11 NCAA national championships (four of which were in football), six straight NACDA Division II Director’s Cups and 11 national runner-ups. The GVSU football team won the GL1AC Championship eight times dsill .^astLk' 1 UlJ in the last 10 seasons and has made the playoffs in each of those 10 seasons. in, But after a rocky start to this year’s football season, * Is it time to press the panic button for Laker football? the Lakers have had to cope with a new description, one with which the Lakers have not identified in more than a _ decade: vulnerability. f"':' i ' - The football team lost its third straight game in a row Saturday in a 26-20 loss against the University of Findlay. The loss marks the team’s largest losing streak since los ing three straight in 2000, before any of the university’s national championships. It also leaves the Lakers winless in GLLAC play through four games this season. It’s been unsettling — to say the least — to see this team struggle in recent weeks, especially in turning the ball over six times against Findlay.
