Buzz around Football Extends to National USA Today Coverage

Lindsey Wilson College received national recognition on Wednesday, August 11, as the Blue Raider football program was mentioned in USA Today.

Lindsey Wilson is one of at least 26 schools in the NAIA and NCAA beginning football over a four year span (2009-2013). Blue Raider football returns -- the program has been dormant for 75 years -- at 1:30 p.m. CT on September 4 against another first-year program, Notre Dame (Ohio) College.

Lindsey Wilson and Notre Dame are among six institutions beginning football this season.

The article cites the stark contrast between Lindsey Wilson and NCAA's University South Alabama -- who has an enrollment of more than 14,000 students -- as both begin the venture of football in 2010.

"It's exciting to see Lindsey Wilson and our programs receive national acknowledgement," LWC athletics director Willis Pooler said. "The USA Today article is an example of how football is another vehicle for us to extend the college's mission to a wider audience."

Coach Oliver says being pleased with The Motz Group is an understatement

“Building a college football program from scratch is a huge undertaking, and picking the right company for our artificial turf project was one of the biggest decisions we had to make during the entire process. After researching multiple companies and checking references across the region, we made the decision to have The Motz Group install their ‘24/7’ synthetic turf at our new stadium. To say we’ve been pleased with our field over the past 10 months is an understatement. The installation process was smooth, and the entire Motz Group staff was great to work with. After practicing on our field throughout spring football and fall camp, I can say without a doubt that I’ve never stepped foot on a nicer synthetic turf field anywhere. During the research process I had other coaches tell me that we couldn’t go wrong if we went with The Motz Group, and I now share that same sentiment.”
