The NSU Men’s & Women’s Basketball teams kicked off the upcoming season with a bang Thursday, November 2nd. The NSU Tip-Of Event introduced this year’s players to an enthusiastic crowd of Demon fans. Both teams played a scrimmage, giving the crowd a taste of upcoming hardwood action. The scrimmages were interspaced by rousing performances by the various NSU Spirit groups. The NSU Band’s “Drumline” came out for a fun performance using choreographed moves and expert drumming – with wooden stools instead of drums. The Purple Haze, NSU’s Spirit Band, made its debut by coaxing Vic the Demon was into joining the dunking contest with surprisingly good results. The opposing teams and errant referees had better be ready for them!
Come see the Demons play their first home game against Letourneau University on November 12th in a doubleheader with both the men’s and women’s teams going into action.
The Natchitoches Parish Journal was delighted to see former Lakeview standout Malik Metoyer back in action after an injury last season. It is indeed a pleasure to see this fine young man back in a Demon uniform. Fork ’em Demons!
