With all of the focus on American-style football, the Men's Soccer team has gotten off to a great start this season.  The goal of this year's team:  make it back to the CAA tournament.  This is the 85th season of Delaware Soccer and after one of the most successful seasons in team history, the team is looking to make history by becoming the first Blue Hens team to reach it's conference tournament in back-to-back seasons.

Mandatory Contributions (& Season-Tickets)

Here is a great article from the Delaware Online/News Journal on the changes made to the pricing of season-ticket packages for this season of Delaware football.  I wanted to make sure this article got to you all sooner than later so I am just attaching the link for now, and when I can make the time, I will give my full analysis on the piece.  I will say that this is a must-read article and worth knowing about before you commit to any more ticket packages through the school.  I have tons more to say on this, but for now, here's the article:

Cannot Forget (9/11)

I remember exactly where I was when I heard about the Towers.  In my 9th grade math class on Long Island, the announcements were being made and the class was chatting amongst itself.  When our teacher wanted us to be quiet, he told us that a plane hit the World Trade Center.  I thought he was kidding at first, but then there was to be an emergency assembly in the chapel of the school, and it sunk in that something serious happened.
