I've been reading this board for a long time but finally decided to register so I could join the "discussion". As my name reveals I am completely biased but hopefully at least partially objective.  Anyway, I can't wait for Thursday night when my son and his teammates take the field.  As I write the new stadium is being polished up and even a Jumbotron is being installed.  With skydivers, fireworks and a full house the Thunder will inaugurate their run for a third consecutive MIAA crown. GO THUNDER!

As a fellow Trine supporter, and D3 fan, welcome!  We will be tailgating at the Thunderbus if you want to stop by.  You will recognize the Thunderbus, don't worry!    LetItRain will no doubt be there also.

Welcome Trinedad, from an OAC poster with ties to Michigan. Hope Trine does well!

Hey guys. Just like TrineDad said, I've been following these boards for a while and am in for some MIAA discussions. I work for WEAX (Trine University's on-campus radio station) doing color for the football broadcasts. I'm an alum and I also work full-time at Trine, so this is really what I do. No biases here 

I'm looking forward to tomorrow night with the debut of the new Fred Zollner Athletic Stadium, along with the nighttime activities, capped off with fireworks at the end of the game.

For those of you that have not heard their broadcast, they do an excellent job!  Also, the fireworks you can get and use in Indiana are WAY better than what has been legal in Michigan.  As a Michigander, I confess to checking out Shelton's on more than one occasion traveling to and from Trine.

I'm excited to see the "show." I'm thinking that it'll be worthwhile because it's Community Night. As long as the rain holds off, I think we'll be in for a good night.

Welcome OnAirThunder to the MIAA board. I am an OAC poster, Mount alum, former player with ties to Michigan and the MIAA. With your position at Trine, you can provide a up front perspective!

For those of you interested in the Adrian vs UWW game but can't make it to The Perk in person, HERE is the link to live stats, audio and streaming video (it's free) -- just follow the online instructions on the UWW football webpage.

I dont know about the rest of you, but I am excited about the college kickoff weekend!

I see a few new Trine faces on the board, so let me introduce myself.  I am a former Thunder player, senior on the '08 10-0 team. 

I have really high hopes for this year's team.  They have a very talented and experienced senior class who, if my memory serves me right, have only lost 5 (4 coming their freshman year) regular season games in their career and have never lost a regular season home game.  The rest of the team seems deep, as a lot of young players have contributed in big roles the last two years.

On that note, I think manchester is a program slowly pulling out of the bottom of the HCAC, but I think Trine will pull off a fairly easy win. 

I have not been following the rest of the conference as closely as I used to.  Any word on other expatations from all you others who are close to your respective teams?

Welcome back Bored. Must have been pretty busy at work lately since you haven't graced us with your presence lately.  And I was just watching the weather channel and they said there is a sever thunderstorm warning for tonight in Angola around 7:00 tonight and it should let up around 10 (Sorry Uncle Rico and LetItRain, I had to).  Unfortunately, I have to work tonight so I can't make it to the game but I'm going to try and get updates as much as possible. GO THUNDER!
