Sr. Krista Fowlkes Breaks Houghton Assist Record
 Houghton,
N.Y. –
Highlander Women's Soccer player Sr.
Krista Fowlkes (Lake Placid, FL) collected her 51st assist for her
career in a 6-0 win over Daemen College in the AMC Qualifier match on Monday
night. The record breaking assist came off the second goal of the evening from
teammate
So. Mandy Lewandowski (North East, PA).
The record was formerly held by Highlander standout
Cassandra Mills (2005). Fowlkes has an opportunity this weekend to extend her
assist record and to bring the Highlanders one step closer to another NAIA
National Tournament berth and possibly Houghton College's first NAIA National
Championship.
The Highlander's will play
Malone College in the NAIA Region IX Semi-final on Friday the 3rd of November at
Home on Burke Field starting at 12:00 pm.
Houghton College
has deep
and
solid
roots in the National Association of Intercollegiate Athletics, where our
teams use their commitment to excellence, both on the field-of-play
and
in the classroom, as a platform for their strong and
unique
emphasis on Sports Ministry. Their goal is to make a difference
for the Kingdom
on campus, in Allegany County,
in the Northeast and
around
the world.
Houghton is one of only 13 institutions who have been hand-selected
by the NAIA to serve as "Champions of Character" Program Centers, opening the door
for Houghton to be a leader,
both in the Northeast and
nationally, in character education.
Through hands-on,
innovative community outreach initiatives, Houghton coaches and
student-athletes
are working together to change the culture of sport and
to change our culture through sport.
