This evening I had the privilege of watching two great Harrison athletic events--ones that are all-to-often left out of the spotlight. My first stop was to see the JV soccer team take on the Jefferson Brochos. These guys could do things with their feet most people couldn't do with their hands! In the end, the Raiders were victorious (3-1)! Although I didn't get to witness it firsthand, my sources tell me (okay, my sophomore son was in the stands for the whole evening) that the varsity team went on to triumph, as well! Congratulations, futballers!
Then it was a quick jaunt down by the river to watch the Harrison Cross Country teams. The Raiders were hosting an eight team meet at the beautiful Tippecanoe Ampitheater. I will confess, this was my first time out to the cross country venue and I was surprised to find that fans have to work hard --running from spot to spot to catch glimpses of the dashers--if they truly want to take in the whole race. But, boy, was it worth it to see those decked in the blue and orange running strong and making Raider fans proud.
Have you gone out to watch your favorite Raider team in action yet this fall? Maybe you're ready for an introduction to an unfamiliar sport. Well, either way, you can't lose when you support Raider athletics! Get out and show that Harrison spirit and join the fans who know what it is to be "Raider Proud"!
