Everyone is invited to cheer on the Ohio Wesleyan football team for free Sept. 28 during Bishop Backer Fall Community Day. (Bring your family and friends!) The Battling Bishops will take on the Allegheny Gators at 1 p.m. at Selby Stadium, 45 S. Henry St., Delaware.
Saturday’s game also will be a Coach to Cure MD event with fans invited to help support the battle against Duchenne Muscular Dystrophy. The one-day national event is a project of Parent Project Muscular Dystrophy in partnership with the American Football Coaches Association. Over the last 11 years, Coach to Cure MD has raised more than $2.1 million for Duchenne research.
The free Bishop Backer game also will be an Honorary Coaches Game, with alumni who helped to establish OWU’s tradition of football excellence on the sidelines with the team.
GO BISHOPS!
