As an eighteen year old making a college decision a lot crosses your mind. For the typical eighteen year old guy the most important thing is young women. Following closely behind would be: the food, how good are the sports teams, and how many years can I go before I have to graduate. Which is why when I told my friends I would be attending Wabash they just looked at me like they didn’t get it.

When Tommy Mambourg scrambled over the goal line from a yard out, Wabash claimed an insurmountable 32-13 lead with only five minutes to play.

The weekend was so much fun that I didn’t want it to end, at one point telling my Mom that I didn’t want to come home.
