Here are your morning announcements for Wednesday, September 19th:    

Here is a UC Irvine Fun Fact: UCI was opened in 1965. Tradition called for the selection of a bear, in the spirit of UC sister campuses. But two water polo players suggested an outrageous alternative- The Anteater, inspired by a character in the Johnny Hart cartoon “B.C.” The idea gained momentum through an imaginative campaign led by student and cheerleader Schuyler Bassett III. The campaign included bumper stickers, posters and decals.

Based on its “originality, uniqueness and relevance to UC” (the anteater is actually an antbear), the unusual beast won 56% of the vote in an election held in November 1965, beating the other nominees (an eagle, unicorn, golden bear, seahawk and “none of these”) The final selection surprised many, but somehow seemed appropriate.

Ms. Olaya attended UCI, she was a DJ for KUCI, the school’s radio station. Her favorite sport was riding blocks of ice down the grassy hill outside the UCI Student Center. Way to go Ms. Olaya and UCI Anteaters!

Congratulations to Girls Volleyball.  The F/S and JV played great and won in 2 straight over Pacifica and the Varsity won 3 to 1. The varsity was led by a combined effort on offense and led by Tiffany Phan’s 44 digs on defense. The Lady Barons are off to a 2-0 start in preseason. Come out and support the Lady Barons volleyball team this weekend here at Fountain Valley for the Dave Mohs tournament.

Congratulations to the 5th ranked Girls Golf Team for their victory over Newport Harbor. The Barons were led by sophomore Lilia Vu and seniors Sally Kim, Jesse Giese and Katherine Tengan. The Barons are now 2 and 0 in league play.
