Saturday, I had the chance to travel on "Eagle 2"; one of NCCU's 56-passenger motercoaches. The buses were leased to provide an oppurtunity for students, faculty and staff to attend cultural and athletic events.
Saturday, we traveled to Lynchburg,Virginia to our game at Liberty University! The ride there was great, the reclining seats, flat screens, and yes even Wi-Fi!Even though we arrived semi-late we fell right in place, immediately cheering our eagles on! At the game I was informed of our "SCREAMING EAGLES",which is a pep-club or "screamers" who attend every game and basically scream!! l0l!
We led the game all the way up until halftime, but unfortunately fell short and returned with a loss! Despite the fact of losing, the experience was amazing. I had NEVER seen any group of people cheer their school on so boldly and proudly, even when we fell behind they kept a cheering!! The court, which consists of Mr.& Miss. NCCU and more, was also there, attired in their maroon and grey suits! Our band played during half time and even had THEIR crowd rocking and dancing! Shoutouts to the great SOUND MACHINE!
If their was one and only one thing I was allowed to say about NCCU, it would be the willingness to love and meet new people. It doesn't matter whether you are black or white, fat or skinny, or short or tall, we show love to everybody! I started off to Virginia knowing two people on the bus and returned knowing two hundred! It's simply family love!!!
with love,
BRi
