20 Sports, One Team- Support FAU athletics

The FAU athletic department just handed out hundreds of free t-shirts to student-athletes.

The shirts are being used as an advertisement to get more Florida Atlantic fans out to home games.

The shirt lists all of the 20 sports here at FAU. Every sport has their own date for fans to come and cheer the team to victory.

(To find the home schedules for any sport at FAU, check out the FAU athletic site.)

I hope these shirts are successful. FAU sports have always had a low fan support which may be a critical reason for our unsuccessful teams this season.

In order for a team to stay motivated and play their best, we need support from our fans.

Do you think the University of Florida Gators football team would be successful if the Swamp was empty every game?

Athletes at Florida Atlantic University, just like Gator athletes, count on fans to attend home games and events to cheer them to victory.

As you can see from the ancient FAU Owsley mascot above, FAU has obviously come a long way in academics and athletics over the years. And yes, we aren't even close to the top!

But we need your fan support to become a university with great, successful athletics. So jump off the Gators bandwagon, and support the school you actually attend.

Let's hoot our way to victory! Go Owls!
