Women's soccer alum Leslie Carver named Miss Campbellsville Alexandria, KY native Carver was a member and worship leader for the Baptist Campus Ministries, a Crazy Love team Bible study leader, FIRST Class Mentor for six semesters, representative for Operation Christmas Child, and worship leader at Parkway Baptist Church in Hodgenville, KY. Click on headline for complete story with photo(s) By Jordan Cornett News from Campbellsville University CAMPBELSVILLE, KY - Former Lady Tiger soccer player Leslie Carver was named this year's Miss Campbellsville at the Honors and Awards Day Wednesday, April 17, 2013. Miss Campbellsville is an award presented to a graduating senior that best exemplifies the University's typical student based on scholarship, leadership, character and potential for success. "I am very proud of Leslie," said head women's soccer coach Thom Jones. "She is a great representation of Campbellsville University. Carver was a December 2012 graduate with a Bachelor of Social Work and a double minor in Aquatics Management and Athletic Coaching. Along with her schoolwork and athletic participation, the Alexandria, KY, native has had her hand involved in countless activities. Carver was a member and worship leader for the Baptist Campus Ministries, a Crazy Love team Bible study leader, FIRST Class Mentor for six semesters, representative for Operation Christmas Child, and worship leader at Parkway Baptist Church in Hodgenville, KY. She also has served as a Residential Assistant for six semesters, head lifeguard at the university pool, was a member of LINC staff, and began a swim lesson called "Tiger Splash" which teaches people of all ages how to swim. Carver thinks her participation on the soccer team was the most beneficial character-building experience of them all, though. "I think soccer has given me a lot of determination and self-confidence. It isn't easy being an athlete and student while also being involved in so many other things. I had to learn time management, but how to be a Christian leader despite the stress." The graduate attributes much of her character to lessons learned from Jones. "Coach tested us. He pushed us to the limits. Sometimes he would come into the locker room after we thought practice was over and yell 'overtime!'. We would have two minutes to get our gear back on and be on the field ready to go again. I learned to be mentally be ready for anything and that even when I'm tired I can't shut down. I have to give 100 percent even, pushing through when I think I can't. That motivation has transferred to my life at large and made me more determined. Quitting for me isn't an option and I will always give my best." Carver is indeed motivated to continue in large endeavors, planning to go wherever the Lord leads her. She will be traveling to Ireland this summer for a mission trip and then will begin her Masters in Social Work at Campbellsville in the fall in hopes to become a professional counselor. - JORDAN CORNETT This story was posted on 2013-04-22 08:01:36
