Rams play Miles College in SIAC Championship game
ALBANY, Georgia -- Albany State University has been through a great deal this fall. Headlines haven’t been as favorable as they would’ve liked, and now with the announcement of the merger made official, a wave of uncertainty has washed over the campus.
One constant bright spot this year has been the Rams football team. After starting 0-2, the Rams turned things around to win six of their next seven and achieve their goal of making it back to the SIAC title game on Saturday. For assistant coach Anthony Kelly, he hopes their achievements gives the community something to be proud of in the midst of the change.
“We’re hoping it means a lot,” he said. “There are a lot of people in this community, as well as on our coaching staff, who are Albany State people. We’re very prideful in our program and our university and the students are very excited about this opportunity.”
After the exciting victory over Fort Valley, ASU president Art Dunning said he’s thrilled at what head coach Dan Land has been able to do in his first season.
“I think he’s done an extraordinary job,” he said. “This is a great way to finish the regular season, with a win and it’s also against our arch rival.
