Gallery: Football brings home victory against North Alabama during Homecoming Weekend

October 21, 2023 by Daniel Curd

The football team took on the North Alabama Lions at Wildcat Stadium on Saturday, taking away a win with a final score of 30-13. The Homecoming game marked the third home game and saw a completely sold-out Anthony field. Before the game, alumni were invited to a special tailgate and were able to watch the game with fans through the ages. At halftime, Ellie Berry, senior kinesiology major from Burleson, received the Homecoming Queen crown. The Wildcats face off against Stephen F. Austin at 4 p.m. Saturday.
