Intramurals
In the upcoming session of intramurals, many of the sports are played outdoors- including soccer, flag football, and ultimate Frisbee.听 In addition to the great health benefits of exercise and sunlight, intramurals can be a great way to de-stress from the pressures of midterms, homework, and jobs. 鈥淚 play outdoor flag football every spring with my friends. It鈥檚 a lot of fun and it鈥檚 a great way for me to blow off some steam after class鈥�, says senior Andrew Dorsey. 鈥淲e鈥檝e never won the championship T-shirts but we鈥檙e hoping to win this year鈥�.
