"The fine arts are powerful at CC because the Block Plan enables a class to reach the impossible; dancers can travel as a group to a dance festival to see the outside, real world. It pushes you to use your creativity – that creativity which is most important in the arts – to maximize your time." – YunYu Wang-Chen, associate professor of dance
Profile: Marty Sertich '06
All-America center Marty Sertich, who finished the 2004-05 season with a nation-leading 64 points, is the second Colorado College player in three years to win the prestigious Hobey Baker Memorial Award. Sertich was announced as the 2005 recipient during a ceremony in conjunction with the NCAA Frozen Four. For Sertich, it seems to run in the family. His father, Steve, played for Colorado College in the early 1970s and skated for the United States at the 1976 Winter Olympic Games. The municipal rink in Colorado Springs is named after his paternal grandfather, Mark "Pa" Sertich. If that wasn't enough, his other grandfather – Tony Frasca – was an All-American at CC in the early 1950s. Marty's younger brother, Mike, also plays for the Tigers. One of four First-Team All-Americans on last season's Colorado College roster, Sertich joins former teammate Peter Sejna (2003) as the only two CC players ever to win the Hobey Baker Memorial Award. Junior left wing Brett Sterling, the nation's top goal scorer with 34, also was a Top 3 finalist last spring.

Profile: Katlin Okamoto '07
A three-year captain at Taos High School who earned First-Team All-State honors in both her junior and senior years, Okamoto knows her way down a soccer field. She served as captain of her Albuquerque United club and Olympic Development teams, led both to state and tournament championships, and was voted team MVP of her high school team in 1999. Luckily for CC, Okamoto came to campus to interview for a merit scholarship and decided that she was interested in playing here. Luckily for everyone, she received the CC Scholar award and when she came to campus, she walked onto the soccer field only to be voted rookie of the year. An honors student who loves sushi and skiing, Okamoto knows that it will be difficult to balance all her commitments, but says, "The CC professors have been very supportive of my athletic schedule. They often ask about how the team is doing and even try to attend games!"
