PENN STATE ALTOONA GOLFER HONORED
FOR SPORTSMANSHIP BY NCAA
8/11/10
The NCAA has named Penn St. Altoona sophomore
Chris Perry (Altoona, PA/
 Altoona)
the Division III Male Student-Athlete
Sportsmanship Award winner for 2009-10. He
is the first AMCC student-athlete ever to win
this honor. Perry was recognized for his honesty in
self-reporting a scoring error at last season's
conference championship, after being notified of
the mistake by PSA head coach Tom Koehle.
Since Perry had already signed and turned in his card, his
action disqualified him from the tournament and
prevented the Lions from defending their AMCC
title. |

AMCC MISSION STATEMENT
The AMCC is an alliance of NCAA Division III institutions whose
mission is to provide our students with an intercollegiate
athletics program that advances their educational experience in a
way that is safe, equitable, respectful, rewarding and balanced.
EXCERPT FROM CORE VALUES:
The practice and promotion of good sportsmanship and ethical
conduct by all members of the AMCC community (i.e., staff,
student-athletes, coaches, and spectators) shall be of paramount
importance.

AMCC CODE OF CONDUCT
Conference coaches, team members and institutional staff members
must exhibit professional decorum in dealings with other coaches,
officials, players, institutional staff members, spectators, and
members of the media.
It is the responsibility of conference coaches and administrators
to uphold all NCAA rules and conference regulations, and to
enforce such rules and regulations with their student-athletes and
staff members.
All members of the athletic department’s staff and all
student-athletes are expected to uphold the highest standards of
ethical recruiting practices. Specifically this means: promoting
the positive aspects of your own programs rather than speaking
negatively of another institution; honoring the attendance
decision of the prospective student-athlete; adhering to the
letter and spirit of NCAA regulations and policies regarding
financial aid and transfer actions; communicating in a timely
manner, either coach to coach or AD to AD, any concerns relating
to suspected recruiting violations or related ethic misconduct.
All individuals associated with the Conference and/or its member
institutions (e.g., administrators, coaches, student-athletes,
SIDs, event staff) are to refrain from making public comments of a
negative or derogatory nature about other institutions, coaches,
enrolled or prospective student-athletes, officials/umpires, or
the conference office. |

BE LOUD, BE PROUD, BE
POSITIVE
In the spirit of good sportsmanship, the Presidents of the
Allegheny Mountain Collegiate Conference ask you to respect
the following conference rules:
- Cheer for your team, not against the visitors.
- Don’t get personal in your comments about players, coaches or
officials.
- No profanity, vulgarity, racist or sexist comments shall be
tolerated.
- Give players, coaches and officials their space by keeping away
from the playing area and team bench areas.
- A “no tolerance” policy for alcohol use is in effect at all
contests.
Be loud, be proud, but be positive.
