Fashion Trend: Bright Shoes

I have no idea why Coach Mincy asked me to write about fashion, I am not fashionable in the slightest.  However, I have noticed a trend in footwear this summer: brighter is better!  Our head coach came in during May rocking a pair of black and neon green shoes.  I made some smart aleck comment about how recruits will be able to spot him in the gym even if the lights go out!  He said at least they would notice him.  And as usual he was right!  You wouldn't believe how many people have commented on his shoes.  They really do grab people's attention whether it is a recruit or fellow coach.  Several AAU programs wore neon shoes this summer that didn't match their uniform at all.  While comfort has always been my personal reason for selecting a shoe, it appears color needs to be moving up that list.  Good luck & God bless!

Jana Wright #4

Hey!!  My name is Jana (Yah-na), a simple four letter word but a pain to pronounce.  I was born and raised in the city of Miami, FL home of the beaches and fun in the sun.  Personally, I love my home city, but will not attend a Miami Heat game even if I had floor seats next to tons of celebrities.  The choice to be an athlete was not an option growing up, being that both my mother and brother received athletic scholarships as well. I’m a freshman here at Lipscomb University and I’m looking to major in Exercise Science, in hopes to become a licensed Physical Therapist.  Aside from basketball and school I love to listen to music, shop, and go out with friends and family.

Anna Bowers #2

I grew up in Nashville and went to The Ensworth School from 3rd through 12th grade. I played every sport offered to girls except volleyball, cross country, swimming, and bowling over the course of middle and high school.  I have three younger siblings: Richard age 20 (Junior at Samford), Andrew age 17 (Junior at Ensworth), and Mary Rae age 15 (Freshman at Ensworth).  I have one dog named Rosie.  I have two parents, both graduated from Lipscomb sometime in the 80s (Debbie and tricky Ricky). In my free time that I don't have much of, I play the guitar, read fabulous books, and pray.  I have no plan for my future other than to spread the Word, and attempt to understand God's plan for me.  I do alright in school, though I am growing less and less fond of it.  I enjoy the wilderness, spending time with people one on one, coffee, eating, tossin' da rock, listening to good music, going to Haiti, and excitedly my cooking skills are much improving, thus I enjoy it.  I will be 22 years old Nov. 24.

Erika Thornsberry #54

I'm Erika Thornsberry.  I'm from a small farm town called St. Marys, Ohio. At my high school we had a day for everyone that owned a tractor to drive it to school on FFA week!  St. Marys is a small community with a lot of town pride and everyone knows everyone.  So getting thrown into the big city has been a change.  I love being with my family and friends.  I'm a tomboy but have my girly side. I love mudding!!  Getting on a four wheeler right after it rains is the best thing in the world!  And of course fishing with the best friend Liz Sampson is a must, plus getting a little dirt under your finger nails at the softball diamond.   After all that is done take me to the closest mall and it's game over.  I love clothes!  Right now its been a struggle, check out my closet in the dorm and you will get lost with all the clothes.  At the end of the day there is nothing in the world I would change for my awesome family that I LOVE so much!!  And of course GO LADY BISONS!!!
