I have been told that the Raider Rally is Monday, February 4 at 6:00 p.m. in the Hoover Price Campus Center.  Check with the Alumni Office to be sure.

Saw an Adrian t-shirt while on a Cruise to Southern Caribbean (on the island of Antigua) on January 11.

Yesterday I saw a young man ice skating on the "Frozen Mile" at Snowdays at Progressive Field in Cleveland.  He was wearing a St. Olaf hooded sweatshirt.

Mount has one bus leaving at 8:00 a.m. tomorrow and will stay over after the game.
There are now two leaving at 9:30 a.m. tomorrow and will return right after the game.
This is one more bus than we have had the past few times.

WOW!

The brunch is held in the Hoover Price Campus Center just north of the stadium.  $7.50 all you can eat.

I just returned from a cruise to the Eastern Carribean and met a father and mother of a formal Whitewater player.  I'm a Mount Union grad and father of a Mount Union grad.

I'm coming down on the "Red Eye" Bus (Seventies favorite mode of transportation).  Leaving the campus center at 5:00 am tomorrow.

Today on ESPN's Around the Horn - reporter Bob Ryan from the Boston Globe said that he predicted Mount Union and Wisconsin Whitewater would meet for a 6th time.

From the University of Mount Union game notes for this week's game v. Bethel

KEHRES NAMED AFCA REGIONAL COACH OF THE YEAR

Larry Kehres was named American Football Coaches Association Regional Coach of the Year for a record 15th time.

Kehres has led the Purple Raiders to their 19th straight and 22nd overall OAC championship and a 16th straight appearance in the NCAA Playoff semifinals. He also became the 11th coach in college football history to win 300 career games this season and is currently 302-22-3 in his 25th season as head coach.

It was also a record for consecutive regional coach of the year honors (5) and Mount Union as a school now has a record 16 selections (Ken Wable 1, Larry Kehres 15).

Kehres is also the current president of the AFCA.

I understand the Alumni Office at Mount is looking into a bus trip to Wisconsin.  There are no details at this point.

Being newly retired and tired of looking at snow I played around with all the bowl games this year, including the d-1, d-2, and d-3 championship games.  Below is a state by state result of wins and losses.  Draw what ever conclusions you want from the info.  In terms of wins Ohio did not have a good year.  In terms of getting there Ohio had five teams in bowls or championships.
