Mount Union Wins

Mount Union College, my former employer, won the Division III football championship earlier today.  The win marks their 8th national championship, giving them 8 championships in the last 13 years.

A couple of players I taught did well in the game, and it was nice to watch their successful performance.  By and large, I thought the football program did an excellent job of balancing athletics and academics, as I never had any problems with the football players in my classes.  I also believe the graduation rate for their football players is very high, unlike what you see in a Division I program.

Congratulations to the Purple Raiders for their outstanding season!
