🦅🏈 EAGLE FEVER RUN RECAP! 🏈🦅

What a run! The USM Army ROTC teamed up with Alcorn State University for the Eagle Fever Run, carrying the football all the way from Alcorn to The Rock! 🏃‍♂️💨

A huge THANK YOU to the Mississippi Highway Patrol and Hattiesburg Police Department for keeping our cadets safe on the roads throughout the journey. Your support and dedication made this event possible! 🇺🇸💙

And, of course… CONGRATULATIONS TO THE SOUTHERN MISS GOLDEN EAGLES ON THE WIN! 🦅💛🏈
