Trevecca Nazarene University Soccer Athletes provide Fisk University Soccer with New Look.
NASHVILLE, Tennessee -- The score a recent exhibition soccer match between Fisk and Trevecca was not important. Both came out winners.
Fisk is in the process of reviving its men's soccer program and needed an opponent.
Not only was Trevecca willing to provide some competition, but the Trojans also took it upon themselves after the match to help the Bulldogs with some necessities.
Fisk's players wore old, tattered uniforms — holdovers they pulled out of mothballs from back before the program went dormant eight years ago.
After the match, Trevecca's players decided to give the Bulldogs a new look.
They held a few fundraisers, accepted donations and paid for a new set of uniforms, which are supposed to arrive this week.
"It was classy and very encouraging to have a Christian-based university like Trevecca help assist us in our rebuilding process," said Fisk coach Joa Makor, who coached the team before and returned this year to bring it back. "Even though we had soccer here before, we are starting from scratch. We don't have a stadium or even a field. I am trying to build back a first-class program, and what Trevecca is doing will definitely help me do that."CONTINUE READING
