ABERDEEN, S.D. – Northern State University athletic officials have designated Saturday, January 23 as a Maroon-out Night. Fans are encouraged to wear maroon clothing to the NSU men's and women's basketball games that evening as the Wolves take on St. Cloud State University in a pair of Northern Sun Intercollegiate Conference contests.
In conjunction with the Maroon-out night, the NSU Student Athlete Advisory Committee (SAAC) will be selling maroon t-shirts on both Friday and Saturday nights. Proceeds from the shirt sales ($15 each) will go toward the Make-A-Wish Foundation in support of a local wish.
NSU is also pleased to welcome the 740th National Guard unit to Saturday's game. Members of the unit – which is based in Aberdeen, but composed of soldiers from all around the Northeast South Dakota region – will be in town for weekend drill.
