Back in the Saddle

Justin Morrison is one of five incredible leaders that will help guide Bison Aquatics to new heights.

Happy late August everyone,

The school year is now one week old and there is quite a buzz in the air.  Our swimmers and divers have returned ready to begin a new chapter in their lives.  We have already convened as a team for our kick-off meeting and the Bison are currently gathering for some captains practices before official practices begin on September 9th.

Speaking of captains, we have the pleasure of announcing our captains for the 2010-2011 campaign:

Lauren Anthony – junior – Oakland, CA

Monique Major – senior – Philadelphia, PA

Steven Lott – junior – Los Angeles, CA

Omar McKenzie – senior – Nassau, Bahamas

Justin Morrison – senior – Memphis, TN

This is easily one of the strongest groups of women and men on this campus and we are fortunate to have them guide us through a tremendous season.

Demonstrating his leadership skills outside the pool, Justin was featured not only in the September 2010 issue of EBONY magazine, but in the Commercial Appeal of Memphis.  This is a tremendous honor for Justin and our program and you can read and listen about Justin’s summer experience here –> http://www.commercialappeal.com/news/2010/aug/22/memphians-essay-appears-in-ebony-02/

We are incredibly proud of Justin for representing Howard University with such dignity and class.  When you go to pick-up a copy of EBONY magazine, look for this cover.

Have a great weekend everyone and we’ll check-in before August is over.

-Matt
