Come Visit Campus....Again!

If you're looking to come visit campus again (or for the first time) and would like a different experience, I have a tip for you. Schedule your next visit around a Skyhawks game.

The games are really a great opportunity to see a part of student life that you don't really get a chance to see during a tour, plus it's EXCITING! Just last week I was able to go to a Stonehill basketball game vs. AIC that came down to a last second shot. Which also happened to be a dunk that won the game for the home Skyhawks. It reminded me of myself way back in my playing days, except I missed most of the shots I took. This statement is still true to this day as anyone shooting around in the SpoCo can attest to.

Both Men's and Women's Basketball have home games just about weekly right here on campus at the Merkert Gymnasium. You can check out their schedule here. Right now the Men's team is 16-4 and the Women's team is 17-5 so both teams have been successful so far in their push to make it back to the NCAA National Tournament.

As a prospective student you can really get a feel for how involved our students are here at Stonehill. If you're not a basketball person, during the winter season you can also catch an Ice Hockey game or an Indoor Track & Field meet. I just happen to be more of a basketball guy. Here's another idea (I'm filled with them today): Check team schedules for any date you will be coming for an Open House, maybe your favorite sport is playing. And if you're really lucky, maybe Ace will be there too. FREE T-SHIRTS! (In the interest of being fully transparent I have no idea whether there will be free t-shirts or not. Only one way to find out. GO)

Our Mascot, Ace
In other campus news: our brand new residence hall is looking good! Things are really moving quickly with the construction. Last week we got a feel for what the furniture in the new building might look like. The building is going to be suite style housing and when it goes online it will certainly be one of the top living choices for students on campus. Did you know over 90% of our students live on campus? BAM! I just hit you with some knowledge and you didn't even know it was coming. I lulled you back then the sneak attack started.

New Residence Hall

This I DO know for a fact: first one to tweet a link to this article with the hashtag #whystonehill gets a real free t-shirt.
