March Madness came early to RecWell

March Madness hit the Kaplan Center last weekend with the championship games for Intramural Sports 5-on-5 Basketball. The evening saw two hard-fought battles culminating with new teams claiming the title of Intramural Champion.


Piney Lake is Open

Spring weather came just long enough last weekend for UNCG students to ride the shuttle bus out to the school’s re-opened Piney Lake recreation area south of Greensboro and enjoy various activities, including boating and hiking, along with free food and music provided by a DJ.
