A Thank You From Coach Creighton
Chris Creighton - On behalf of the football team, I want to thank all of you who came out
and supported us on Saturday. When we realized our home game against Wittenberg fell on Fall Break we were very disappointed. Fall Break or not, Wabash Always Fights and our support was nothing short of awesome. The stadium was full and the stadium was loud. It was yet another example of why Wabash is so special.
I also want to thank Nate Powell and the team for painting the endzones, Cal Black and his wife for decorating the stadium, Jim Amidon and staff for allowing the game to be televised and Tom Runge for putting together the Celebration of Wabash Football following the game. It was a great day and a fantastic evening.
Oh yeah, and it was Fall Break!

The crowd at the game was very reminiscent of the late 70's when we were starting to win again. The students at that time had not quite gotten used to the fact that the team was getting better. We had a great deal of support from our parents and the town. We (the football team and the community) were really ready to win and as more and more fans returned to the games they were always loud and always supportive regardless of the outcome of the game.
