A second addition I've added to this site is a Guestbook that allows all
our visitors a chance to leave a message about themselves, what they think of this site or
their views on Mount Union football. Yes, I know, this has been a long time
coming. The site is nearly a year old and finally the guestbook is done! You
can get to it near the top of the left menu on the main page or by clicking here. Please take a minute and
sign it when you have the chance.

I'm working on a couple additions to this site, the first of which has now been
added at the bottom of the left menu on the main page. A MTU Opinion Poll
has been added and the first question asks your preference to the playing surface at Mount
Union Stadium. Please give us your opinion.

Mount Union College has announced the names of two more high school seniors that have
enrolled at the school. One is Stark County football standout Eric Heinzer, from
Perry High School. Heinzer had options including preferred walk-on status at Akron
and what amounted to nearly a full-ride scholarship at Walsh. You can read more
about him in a story in today's
Canton Repository.
You can also read about all of Eric Heinzer's gridiron accomplishments, as well as those of all the official recruits by Mount Union College in our 2001 Recruiting Class page here.

I came across a great statistics page concerning NCAA athletics.
Scroll down to find football on the bottom left. This has everything from attendance

April 18th is Mount Union College Night at Canal Park when the Akron Aeros host the
Harrisburg Senators. The 2000 National Champion Football Team will be honored on the
field before the game. First pitch is scheduled for 7:05 p.m. If you haven't
caught a game in Akron yet, that might be a good night.
