I came across a fantastic Mount Union Football website today.  It's a senior project of Purple Raider defensive end Todd Braden.  He's done some wonderful work with the site and the wallpaper he created is must have!  You can take a look for yourself at his work here. 

Braden finished a stellar football career at Mount Union in 2001 recording 69 tackles, with 12 quarterback sacks, including a Purple Raider single game record four sacks vs. Baldwin Wallace last season.  Nice work Todd!

With 40% of the vote Chuck Moore has been named the offensive player you'd most like to see back at Mount Union.  Our new poll turns to defense.  Give us your opinion as to the best defensive player of the last decade.  But I've changed the rules slightly.  No one that played in the last two years has been included in the poll.  I want to make you think a bit.  Vote today!

Happy Birthday to us!  Today marks the second year anniversary of this website.  Thank you to the 390,336 people that have been here and keep coming back.  The site has averaged 543 hits per day and almost double that September through December.

The highest traffic day was the Monday following Mount Union's semi-final playoff victory over St. John's this past December, when we had 3,485 visitors.  Thanks for all the nice comments we've received over the last two years!
