Proud to be a Skyhawk


Well, it’s week three and I guess it’s time for me to get down off my soap box and talk about something sports related.

I mean, I’m sure everyone loved to read my opinons on the way they should feel about the town and UTM athletics, but you all don’t pay the big bucks for the Pacer to read about...wait....you don’t pay any bucks for it, so I guess I can actually write about whatever I want.

First off, congratulations are in order for the Skyhawk football team and coaching staff on their first win of the season. Now that that weight has been lifted, let’s keep the winning streak alive in Indiana this weekend. Hopefully I’ll be in the stands in Terre Haute cheering you guys on.

Speaking of the football team, where did this Chapman guy come from, and where do we get more of him?

Seriously, go down to Marietta, Ga., find out what’s in the water, and bring it back up here. Dump it in the water tower and UTM would have the best rushing game in the country.

Now it’s time for me to make my plea to the readers out there. Coaches, players, parents, and fans: Please take your cameras to sporting events. You have no idea how hard it is to get photos for the sports pages sometimes. I can’t go to all the events, and sometimes neither can our photographers. I had to get this weeks picture from the Austin Peay Student newspaper. PLEASE submit photos to pacer_sports@mars.utm.edu. You have no idea how much easier it will make my life. Until next time...GO SKYHAWKS!!!
