Pull a Deacon athlete's name out of your butt thread

Dewi Hardman, yes. Another good dude. Welsh, from (one of) the smallest town(s) in the world. I would always ask him to recite that super long Welsh city name: Llanfairpwllgwyngyllgogerychwyrndrobwllllantysiliogogogoch

You didn't by any chance know Greg Harron did you?

I sort of knew all those dudes from being a camper every year, going to matches as a kid, and then hanging with alums watching games in the aughts, but I'm still a bit younger than that generation. Not super close with any of them, but there aren't too many Wake soccer players from the Chyzowych-era onwards that I don't know. Greg was on the cover of Soccer America once, getting schooled by some UNC player, if I recall.

Trina Maso de Moya is another legend, one of Wake's greatest athletes. Best Wake volleyball player ever, probably would have/could have been one of the best Wake women's soccer players ever, too, if she had gone that route.
 
You are right. It was Lee Foye...I still have a scar on my thumb from when he hit The Shot. As I screamed, i threw my hands up and caught the outside of my thumb on a light in my room. I didn't realize I was bleeding until on of the girls listening to the game with us screamed "Where did the blood come from?"

I saw a piece of skin flapping, wrapped it in a towel, took a hit and kept celebrating.
 
ACC Women's Golf Champ Marta Prieto
Men's Tennis Doubles Specialist Raul Munoz. Great partnership with Myles Clouston.

I remember growing up my dad's friend (Wake grad) would constantly scream at the TV "YOU HAVE HANDS OF STONE PERAL! STONE!"
