Athletes Drive for Success The competitive drive which is a vital part of most law students also makes many of them avid athletes. Organized team sports are offered both by intramural competition and city leagues. The latter is used more for sports such as soccer, which is relatively new to this country and is played widely only by school-age children. Intramurals are extremely popular as they offer men's, women’s and coed competition in traditional American sports. The perennial champion in Law School and Graduate School flag football competition is the talented Legal Eagles which are well-coached by Professor Charles Alan Wright, but many other men’s and women's teams also compete. The Illegal Eagles, a women’s flag football team, is not quite as successful as the Legal Eagles, but flaunted their skills in an exhibition game against the faculty in Eastwoods Park in the fall. Not quite as many teams participate in basketball, and talent can be hard to come by. All forms of softball are popular, and many TQ sections field coed teams. However, since the playoffs run into Law' School final exams, which begin a week earlier than those on the main campus, competition is not as keen. Be it team sports or jogging or pumping iron, many Law Students are active athletes. Sports 18 — Sports
