WOMEN'S BASKETBALL WICHITA, KS -- The 2011 All-Conference Women's Basketball Teams of the Kansas Collegiate Athletic Conference have been selected by the ten women's head coaches. Coach-of-the-year is Lonnie Kruse of Sterling College “Lady Warriors,” the regular-season KCAC co-champions. Named "Player-of-the-year" is senior Britany Gaspar of Sterling College. The "Freshman-of-the-year" is freshman Laura Patrick of Sterling College, and "Newcomer-of-the-year” is junior Brett Bates of Southwestern College. Again this year in addition to First Team and Honorable Mention, both an All-Defense Team and an All-Freshman Team were selected by the coaches. Sterling College and Kansas Wesleyan University were this year’s KCAC women’s co-champions from the regular-season, with Sterling conference records of 16-2 KCAC and 24-4 overall and KWU conference records of 16-2 KCAC and 27-2 overall (prior to post-season competition). The team which wins the KCAC eighteenth annual KCAC post-season women's tournament (Feb. 24-28) will be the KCAC affiliated conference primary and automatic representative team to the NAIA Division II national championship tournament March 9-15, in the 32-team national tournament at Tyson Events Center/Gateway Arena in Sioux City, Iowa, hosted by Sioux City Events & Facilities Bureau. Because the KCAC is a ten-team conference, a second team from the KCAC Conference also will receive a berth to the NAIA national championship tournament — the highest seeded team not winning the KCAC Tournament regardless of finish in the tournament. In addition, it is possible that the NAIA also will select an “at-large” team from the KCAC Conference for the national championship tournament. The complete All-KCAC women's basketball team and honor lists for 2011 are: K.C.A.C. 2010-2011 All-CONFERENCE WOMEN'S BASKETBALL, First Team (U) Angela Wood, Sr., 5-7, Guard, Wichita, KS, BETHEL COLLEGE.

The presentation of this year’s All-KCAC Women's Basketball awards will be given during halftime of the men's postseason tournament championship final, and the All-KCAC Men's Basketball awards will take place during halftime of the women's tournament championship final — all on KCAC Conference “Championship Monday” at Hartman Arena in Park City, Kansas, on the north edge of Wichita. The ten independent colleges of the Kansas Collegiate Athletic Conference, commonly called “The Kansas Conference,” have combined student enrollments well over 10,000. The KCAC Conference traces roots back to February 15, 1890, when the Kansas Intercollegiate Athletic Association resulted from first successful attempt at organization among Kansas colleges, "to promote and regulate amateur intercollegiate athletics." The present KCAC legal entity comes from a reorganization of the conference on December 1, 1928. The KCAC continues to be the only all-Kansas intercollegiate conference of the state’s four- year colleges and universities. 3 The end of 2011 regular-season standings with the Conference champions for both women and men, and the KCAC Basketball postseason tournament seeds, are: K.C.A.C.

  • Tabor College
    Tabor College MISSION Preparing people for a life of learning, work and service for Christ and his kingdom. OBJECTIVES Tabor is...A Christian College Tabor seeks to be more than just a “church-related” college. Its goal of providing a Christ-centered higher education is taken very seriously. Tabor requires that its faculty and staff be able to articulate and practice a strong faith in Jesus Christ as Savior and Lord. Tabor also seeks to integrate Christian convictions and values into its learning experiences throughout the College. Tabor is...A Liberal Arts College Tabor seeks to provide a Christian worldview, infusing the entire curriculum with important dimensions of meaning and purpose. The Christian perspective redeems the educational process from the moral crisis, despair, and the lack of purpose in a secular worldview. In the liberal arts tradition, students, faculty, and staff should demonstrate: 1. An understanding of the main fields of knowledge 2. An understanding of the relationships between the fields of knowledge 3. An understanding of value systems in order to develop the mind and character for free and mature decision making 4. Methods of inquiry unique to the various disciplines of knowledge 5. An understanding of the creative arts in a wide range of human experience and knowledge 6. Independent scholarship 7. Competency in reading, writing, speaking, and the functional use of numbers 8. An understanding of how to care for the human body, use the environment, and use leisure time in order to maintain and improve physical and mental well-being Tabor is...A Community of Learners Aided by divine grace, love, and power, a community of learners may achieve high moral standards and experience the deepest meaning and potential of human nature.

  • Sbulife Spring 2007 SBU’S Global Society at a Glance: Students from Argentina, Ghana, Guyana, Japan and the United States
    s we begin a new semester at SBU in the aftermath of what will be known in Southwest Missouri as the Ice Storm of 2007, we are all a bit more reflective than usual. Being without electricity, heat, food refrigeration, and/or water for days and days was a humbling experience for those of us used to these twenty-first century comforts, not to mention the indulgences we missed when we also experienced the loss of cell phones, Internet service, and cable television. As my family and I Ahuddled in front of our fireplace in the candlelight, I couldn’t help but think of all the places around the world where SBU sends missionaries. How many of these places have never had the comforts of electricity, running water, easily accessible heat and refrigerated food or the advantages of telephone service? Worse yet, how many places around the world have never had a Bible in which to find comfort on their dark and cold days? My family and friends were able to seek comfort from Scriptures and prayer as well as literal comfort in the many shelters set up in area churches. How dark our world literally would be without Christ and His people spreading His compassion and the Good News! For SBU to succeed in continuing to send out missionaries throughout the world and to prepare all students for the Great Commission responsibilities each Christian faces, we need to be mindful of the needs of our global society. Besides the breadth of a liberal arts education and the depth of study in their chosen academic field, what do students need to be prepared for effectively working in a global society? The bottom- line: Students need the ability to feel compassion for people who do not look or talk like them.
