Excitement in the Air

I live in Shreveport, but can still feel the excitement building toward what should be a fun-tastic Saturday afternoon at Prather Coliseum.

I hope you know by now that there are several promotions surrounding the men's/women's televised doubleheader which begins at 2pm. The NSU marketing/sports information department has done a terrific job of getting the word out about everything that will be going on. If you need more details, just look around this website.

From the women's standpoint, there is even more reason to look forward to Saturday's game against Nicholls. Last Wednesday, while the Lady Demons were resting up, Stephen F. Austin was falling short against Texas-Arlington. That means despite losing last time out against Texas A&M Corpus-Christi, NSU is just a half-game behind the LadyJacks for first place in the Southland Conference's Eastern Division. Saturday, SFA goes to Southeastern Louisiana. A loss by the LadyJacks, and a win by the Lady Demons, and NSU could be in first place by a half-game. (As of this writing, UCA and SLU are a full game out of first place). That should be reason enough to cheer the Lady Demons in person Saturday!

And guess who NSU plays next Wednesday? Yep, SFA--in Nacogdoches.

As always, if you can't make it to the game Saturday, I hope you listen to all the action on the Demon Sports Network (including 100.7 KZBL) and this website.
But if you can make it, I hope you do. And remember to wear white!
