Biola sports are just about wrapped up. With just one team still active, most teams will now begin the long off-season process of training and preparing for next season.

Here is a look at each team and what they accomplished in 2014.

Baseball:

It was a pretty rough season for Biola baseball, but with first-year coach Jay Sullenger taking over the reins just under a year ago, not much change was going to happen from 2013 to 2014.

Last season, the Eagles finished at one-game under .500, with a 25-26 overall record. Biola finished last in the Golden State Athletic Conference with 14-23 conference record.

This year, Biola dropped quite a few more games. The Eagles finished with a 15-39 record with an 11-25 conference record.

A few major roster shifts happened between the two seasons that affected the team and their quality of play.

The Eagles lost freshman pitchers Josh Staumont and Trevor Oaks, as the two chose to transfer to Azusa Pacific University and California Baptist University, respectively. Biola also lost seniors Benji Sutherland and Nick Turner, who were huge contributors for the Eagles on both offense and defense.

Despite the rough changes, the team was able to send a largely senior team out with plenty of playing time. Seniors Luke Klocek, David McNeill, Boone Farrington, Johnny Farrington and Michael Annunziata started most games this season, with Sage Poland and Bryan Castelli pitching in many of those games.

The Eagles, with Sullenger at the helm, will look to rebuild next season and continue to improve at the plate, from the mound and in the field.

Softball:

If there was one Biola team that surprised everyone this year, it was softball.

After finishing 2013 with a 25-28 record and getting knocked out in the NAIA qualifying tournament, the Eagles took the conference by storm, winning 36 games and finishing second in the GSAC standings.

After cruising through most of the season, the Eagles fought to secure a place in the national tournament by reaching the GSAC tournament finals. Despite falling to Concordia University Irvine, Biola got an at-large bid in the NAIA Opening Round. They reached the finals with two big wins over Taylor University before getting bounced by host Reinhardt University.

Leading the charge for Biola was the dynamic pitching duo of junior Reba DePriest and senior CeCe Luster. DePriest, in her first season with the Eagles, won GSAC pitcher of the year and was top in stats on the national level. Luster was a dominant force from both the mound and the plate, leading the Eagles with a .359 batting average.

On the whole, 2014 proved to be a year of heading in the right direction for the Eagles. Biola will lose three players next season due to eligibility, but with the emergence of freshman and sophomore players, the team can be assured that success is hanging on the horizon.

Track and Field:

Track experienced another successful year highlighted by a second-straight conference title at the GSAC championships for the women. There will be six women competing in the NAIA outdoor national tournament.

Senior Alexandra Sciarra continued her successful season by qualifying in the 400 meter hurdles and the 800 meter race. Sciarra will also be competing in the 4×800 meter relay alongside freshman Lyndee Dawson and sophomores Anika Gasner and Brooke Arvidson.

Senior Taylor McCahon and sophomore Nicole Falkenstein both made the qualifying round for the pole vault.

Rounding out the competitors for the women’s side is freshman Kate Smiley, who qualified in the 100 meter race in the GSAC championship.

Senior Danny Ledesma will join junior Kevin Horchler to represent the men’s team at nationals. Ledesma finished the half marathon with a time of 1:10:49.10 to qualify while Horchler qualified in the 3,000 meter steeplechase at 9:13.37.

Tennis:

Despite a year where their record might suggest a losing season, 2014 was a huge building year for both the men and women’s tennis teams.

The men finished with a 9-16 and 4-6 in GSAC play. The nine wins equal the most in program history as well as more than the number of wins in 2013 and 2012 combined.

Biola experienced a few blowout losses early on from national ranked GSAC opponents but cleaned things up and got a few big conference wins down the stretch.

Freshman duo Lucas Lee and Luke Mountain competed well in the Ojai Tournament to end the year on a positive note.

The women also improved in 2014, going 7-17, their best record since 2010. The seven wins were the same as the previous three seasons combined.

Despite starting the season on a seven-game losing streak, things began to turn around. Arguably the highlight of the year was a 5-4 victory in mid-April over No. 13 Concordia University Irvine. The win kept the Eagles from finishing last in the GSAC standings.

Despite a rather average spring athletic season, the Eagles wrapped up a record 27 scholar athletes to lead the entire GSAC.
