The two-hour event was highlighted by coaches and players taking turns on the microphone, skills challenges involving both athletes and fans, as well as music, food, and free giveaways.
First, the Eagles football team was introduced. Head coach
Rob Tenyer opened the conversation, before passing the mic to several of his senior football players. Then, the dance team preceded the cheerleading squad in a routine that ignited the packed crowd.
Next, the Morehead State men's and women's basketball teams were introduced, along with the coaching staffs, including head coaches
