You graduated from BHS in 1972, correct?

Yes, and my classmates were wonderful friends; we had some great experiences and a number of us have reconnected on Facebook sincethe passing of Rosie Rodabaugh Dolan in 2010.

I am sure I remember watching you twirl with fire during half-time shows. When did you start twirling lessons? Can you still twirl a baton? Were you also a dancer?

It was pure madness in Founders Hall on Sunday night.

Bluffton University held its annual Midnight Madness event, launching the collegiate men's and women's NCAA Division III basketball seasons.

During the evening members of the men's and women's university basketball teams were introduced. And there was lots more.

Other events included dunk competitions and similar competitions. Bluffton Icon intern Jordan Howe captured the event on video.

It was an interesting way to launch the final season of intercollegiate basketball in Founders Hall.
