Shout Out to the student section

Nice turnout and staying for the whole game. Was equally nice to see the way the team and HCCM came to acknowledge them after the game.

Haven't the players always done that?

Hopefully this year you do not have to go to Northpark to see them.

I have been very impressed with the student turnout and them staying for the whole game this year.

I was impressed with the student turnout. After "Varsity" I was more impressed when the players started slapping hands with the students in a show of respect and thanks for their support

I believe that, with a couple of exceptions in the June era, the team has always gone over to the students and band for Varsity.

That said, there weren't usually many students left.

More to lwjr's point. It was the players AND coaches enthusiasm of slapping hands with a genuine appreciation of the student's presence

Yep, that is in direct contrast to the previous regime's instituted culture of separation between students and football team

Agree. If they actually engaged with the fans that is great.

Ok, you were the one giving high fives to yourself after the game. I was wondering who that was on the blvd after the game.
