The OLLU Community gathered on Nov. 4 to send off the men's and women's soccer players to Fort Worth, where they will play in the Red River Athletic Conference Tournament on Nov. 5, and the cross-country team to Cedar Hill, Texas, where they will compete in the conference tournament on Friday.
Dr. Peter Zografos, director of Campus Ministry, led the group in a special prayer for the teams. Dr. David Estes, executive vice president of OLLU, gave the student-athletes a pep talked and encouraged them to display their Champions of Character attitudes on the playing field.
The men are ranked third in the conference and are set to play against no. 6 ranked Texas Wesleyan University on Nov. 5 at 1 p.m. No. 4 ranked Northwood University will play no. 5 ranked Texas College at 5 p.m.
On Nov. 6, no. 1 ranked University of Texas at Brownsville will take on the lowest remaining seed from day one at 5 p.m. No. 2 ranked Huston-Tillotson will play the highest remaining seed from day one at 1 p.m.
