Hans Batichon, Dexter Jackson and Pierre Banks pose for me while I take their photo. The Appalachian State football players just found out via ESPN news that their team is seeded #2 in the nation behind New Hampshire in Division 1-AA.
Note the SoCon Champ t-shirts--ASU is the outright SoCon champs. On Saturday, ASU beat Elon in a lop-sided game 52-14. You can read everything you want to know about ASU football and more at Go ASU . I have one more tidbit that I want to share with ya'll--but particularly with the mother of ASU football player Justin Woazeah:
Dear Justin's Mom,
I know that you heard from your son via cell phone today as he sat in Legends watching the ESPN football rankings. I know because I saw him. He was so excited to see himself on TV. It was like Christmas came early. He was adorable as he waited with anticipation. He lept out of his chair when the tv commentator announced ASU's ranking. I am sorry that you couldn't be here to see him jump up and cheer. But I do want you to know that the first words out of his mouth were, " I've gotta call my Mama." You were the first person that he thought of to share the news.
I just thought you may want to know...
Sincerely,
Marie
