If you’ve ever been to an Elon University football game, you have witnessed the skills of junior Kasia Luzynski, otherwise known as “the girl who twirls fire-lit batons” during the Fire of the Carolinas’ performance at half-time.

Sit Down or Get Out: Group of Elon Students Removed from Oct.19 Football Game

By jbiegel

Many Elon students were removed from Rhodes Stadium Saturday, Oct. 19, for standing and cheering in the students section during the football game against Chattanooga. According to Elon Athletics, a fan from the general admission section, adjacent to the student section, complained to a volunteer security officer that they could not see due to standing students. Junior Michael Lindsey was one of the students cheering in the student section. "The people in the yellow jackets came down to us at one point and they were telling us we needed to sit down or we were going to get kicked out of the game," he said. Lindsey and his friends ignored the officer and continued to cheer. Thirty minutes later, the officer returned to the student section and informed Lindsey and the other students that their day at the stadium was over. Junior Casey Brown was sitting in the student section a few seats away from Lindsey and was not pleased with how the situation was handled.

Elon student body, where are you?

By Matt Krause

Elon University, hold the excuses. I don’t want to hear them. Your poor showing at last week’s football game against the University of Tennessee at Chattanooga has angered me. “Oh, it was raining and cold, that wouldn’t be comfortable in my sorority sundress,” says the general female population of Elon University. “Dude, that bro Johnny Manziel was on TV, so were the Red Sahx, and besides, dude, we're bad,” says the general Elon fraternity brother. “I don’t even like football, I prefer musical theater,” says another general population of Elon. I said, hold the excuses.
