Farquharson earns MEAC's Nike Post Graduate Scholarship
DURHAM, North Carolina -- North Carolina Central University (NCCU) baseball senior Etienne Farquharson, from Inagua in The Bahamas, has been selected by the Mid-Eastern Athletic Conference (MEAC) to receive the Nike Post Graduate Scholarship for his performance in the classroom and on the diamond.
This is the second such academic honor for Farquharson, who was also named to the Capital One Academic All-District III team by the College Sports Information Directors of America (CoSIDA) with a 3.961 Grade Point Average (GPA) majoring in business.
"Etienne is an extremely bright and talented young man that deserves all the accolades he is receiving," said NCCU head baseball coach Jim Koerner. "I am very proud of his academic accomplishments."
Farquharson ended up hitting .239 with 11 RBIs in his final season at NCCU, which included a 3-for-6 effort at the plate with a run scored, a stolen base, and an RBI in the Eagles series sweep over Florida A&M to end the conference slate. NCCU finished the 2012 regular season with a 19-32 overall win/loss record with a 13-10 mark in conference play.
The Nike Post Graduate Scholarship for $5,000 is awarded by the conference to both a male and female student-athlete who has excelled academically and athletically and are in their final season of intercollegiate athletics eligibility and competition under MEAC and National Collegiate Athletic Association (NCAA) regulations for the sport in which the student-athlete is nominated.

30 countries expected to participate in Nike Junior Tour
THE Nike Junior Tour (NJT) International Masters has become more than just a tennis tournament. It has become an experience. This year all the under-12 and under-14 boys and girls who qualify will have a totally new experience.
This year the tournament will be bigger than ever before with 30 countries expected to vie for top honours. With the dates now December 8 to 15 the Masters will be played later than usual. The reason for this is that it will fall in the week separating the Eddie Herr and Orange Bowl tournaments.

2010 Nike Junior Tennis Tour draw released
THE boys under-14 draw is more about the players who are not seeded than those who are. This is an incredibly strong group of competitors and the eight who are normally protected by their draws may not find life that easy.
Leading that group of players is Russia's Karen Khachanov. He just missed being seeded, but, could very well test No 1 seed Clement Geens of Belgium early in the tournament. Remarkably, he is one of the few players forced to play a first-round match and he will meet South Korean wild card, Chin Yen Tong, in that opener. A win there would put him against Fa Jing Sun of China, after which he is also set to clash with Geens.
The top seed has a bye and then takes on Anton K ...
Lawyer says rush to judgment in murder case
A defense attorney yesterday suggested that crime scene officers missed "important" evidence during a murder investigation.
Geoffrey Farquharson made his assertions during the second day of testimony in the trial of Kofhe Goodman, who is accused of the murder of 11-year-old Marco Archer.
Goodman, who is also known as Edwardo Ferguson, has pleaded not guilty to the allegations that he killed Archer sometime between September 23 and 28, 2011.
His trial is before Supreme Court Justice Bernard Turner.
Sergeant James Colebrooke, the first witness called in the case, continued his testimony yesterday.
Colebrooke photographed a decomposing body that was found about 80 feet away from a Yorkshire Drive apartment around 10:30 a.m. on September 28.
During cross-examination, Colebrooke admitted that he said he wrote a report in relation to the murder of Archer after visiting the crime scene.
However, Colebrooke said to this day he did not know whose body was found at the scene.
Farquharson said, "I put it you, there was a rush to judgment in this matter. Conclusions were drawn before the evidence was reviewed."
Colebrooke replied, "I wrote a report based on my job description."
In response to questions from Farquharson, Colebrooke agreed that crime scene investigators ought to maintain an open mind as it could result in "missed evidence".
Farquharson asked Colebrooke if he collected any insect larvae to assist the pathologist in determining the time of death. Colebrooke said he did not.
Colebrooke also said he did not collect any plant material from the body to assist investigators.
Farquharson said, "This may have been important evidence."
Colebrooke replied, "The body was found in a sheet on a bunch of dried coconut leaves on the ground."
Farquharson continued: "Was any plant material present on the sheet? Is that plant material important evidence?"
Colebrooke replied, "It could have been."
Colebrooke said he did not know Archer's weight, height, clothing or shoe size.
Police found long khaki trousers, a dark Bob Marley t-shirt, a multi-colored boxer shorts and a pair of blue Nike slippers inside a white garbage bag in a garbage bin in front of the apartment complex.
Colebrooke said he did not photograph the inside of a suitcase that was found on top of the corpse.
Colebrooke said he was not aware that Sgt. Esther Miller had visited the apartment and documented the premises a few weeks earlier.
Farquharson said it would be ridiculous for someone to "be hiding bodies in the back of the yard" after you'd just had your house searched.
Garvin Gaskin, the deputy director of public prosecutions, Neil Brathwaite, the assistant director of public prosecutions, and Darell Taylor appear for the Crown.
The trial continues today.
