I apologize as I've been very lazy with my blogging as of late. Now that the cross country poll has been done for a few days, I'm finally getting to posting the results. With seven votes out of 11 total, Victoria Smith (above and circled below) has won the title of the best looking SJSU cross country runner.
Smith easily beat out her teammates for the title. The others vying for the crown, Lauren Dubay (below left and boxed above far left - 0 votes), Nisha Richardson (below center and boxed above far right - 2 votes), and Alexa Richter (below right and boxed above center - 2 votes), proved that blondes don't always have more fun as even with the combined total of their votes they couldn't have beaten the brunette running star!
In other SJSU sports news, the baseball team has been on a bit of a cold streak. In their opening WAC series they dropped 3 of 4 games to Hawaii and go into the weekend with a 20-8 overall record, but a disappointing 1-3 in the WAC. They had a big game with their biggest "Team for Life" rival Louisiana Tech postponed today and will attempt to play a double header against the Bulldogs tomorrow. Chad and I are looking forward to a great series!
Next up in our best looking SJSU athlete poll will be the Lady Spartan Golfers! Please keep voting for your favorite SJSU athletes.
In a tight vote, another blonde bites the dust! Shraddhanjali Singh (above and circled below - 5 votes) edged Madeleine Ziegert (below left - 4 votes) for the best looking golfer and will advance to the SJSU best looking athlete finals in the coming months. The voting went back and forth with Singh gaining a push the last two days to secure the title. Rounding out the voting was Jody Ho (below right) who garnered two votes which helped swing the contest to Singh.
In other Spartan news, the baseball team has dropped three games in a row, the latest being a heartbreaking 7-6 11-inning loss last night to UC Santa Barbara. Their record currently sits at 24-11. They will have a couple chances to avenge last night's loss as they tangle with UC Santa Barbara two more times this weekend. The good news for the baseball team is they swept the four game Team For Life rivalry series against the lowly Bulldogs of Louisiana Tech last weekend and sent them and their faithful followers home in tears!
