Hang tag hocus pockus - will it work its magic Sunday?


The hang tag has been correct throughout the years on the number of game wins for the Flyers. Take for exampe the Temple game, the tag was #17 and Dayton won and got 17 wins. Now its XU at the Arena Sunday, we still have 17 wins after the loss to LaSalle Thursday, can the hang tag give us 18 wins???

Dayton v. Xavier - Let the game begin


#10/#12 Xavier at Dayton biggest game in four years?

It was February 19, 2005 when Brian Roberts and Jimmy Binnie were freshman; Trent Meacham and Chris Alvarex were also Flyers when Dayton defeated Xavier at the UD Arena by the acore of 59-55. The freshman, now seniors have one more shot at X!

Red Scare's Drive 75 Campus-Wide Service Event February 13-20


Drive 75 Campus-wide Service Event
February 13-20, 2008

Description:
Drive 75 is an annual service event sponsored by Red Scare to benefit The Dayton Area Food Bank and Secret Smiles Organization. Drive 75 is a competition to see who can raise the most money and pounds of food between University of Dayton and Xavier University student organizations.
During this week long event groups are divided according to size and are challenged to see who can collect the most money and pounds of food. This year students from Xavier University will be participating and competing against UD.

How to Participate:
Organizations on campus will register their group according to size (more or less than 50). Any organization can participate and new groups can be created (groups do not have to be official campus organizations to participate).
Starting February 13, groups can collect throughout the campus, including neighborhoods and residence halls. One day during the week a “dorm storm” will be held. This is where groups will be given an extra time to go out and collect around campus. After collecting, groups will bring their items to specified location to be counted. February 20 at 6 p.m. is the last time collected items will be accepted. All totals will be added and compared to totals from Xavier.

What to Win:
At the end of the competition, the top groups in each category will be announced at the UD/Xavier game on February 24. The group that collects the most pounds of food and money (each $1 raised = 1 pound), will receive a plaque with their group name on it.

Goals:
Last year 3402 pounds was collected and $1214.15 was raised. This year we hope to raise over 5000 pounds of food and money combined.

Contacts:
For more information contact Juliana Brown at brownjum@notes.udayton.edu

Through Drive 75, Red Scare has been given the chance to bring the campus together to help a common cause. We look forward to seeing the same enthusiasm toward helping the Dayton Area Food Bank and Secret Smiles as we do while cheering on the Flyers.
