A few things that slipped through the cracks in recent days:

• The Colonials have themselves a new strength and conditioning coach. Ben Kenyon, who served as a graduate assistant to former coach Mark Bearden during the 2006-07 school year has been tabbed to lead GW after spending last year as an assitant strength coach at the University of Florida. Kenyon had been listed on the staff directory at GWsports.com for a few days, but the official announcement came out today.
• Former GW women’s basketball players Elisa Aguilar and Anna Montaňana have been representing Spain in the Beijing Olympics for a few days now. Aguilar is averaging 6.3 points over three games for the Spanish squad, while Montaňana is tearing it up, leading the team with 17 points and 6.3 rebounds per contest. Spain’s next test will be against the United States on Friday.
• The wait is over. After three grueling months without any Colonials action, GW fans can get excited for the women’s soccer team’s match against Loyola (Md) today. The Loyola Web site has the game listed as an exhibition, but the GWsports.com makes no such distinction — but we’ll be sure to keep you posted nonetheless.
