More Fans in the Seats

CEDAR CITY: Utah -- Jayden Fan Name: Raz Taz Jay

Given last nights performance by the Southern Utah Universitys mens basketball team its safe to say they have the talent to make a huge impact in the 2018-2019 season.

On the other hand, lets not forget the other aspect of the sports team: the fans. Believe of not, the fans play a role in the morale of the team and as well as the 12th man in distracting the opponent.

This season the athletic department should focus on getting more fans in the seat by giving the students a chance to get to know the players better. By the same token the players should be marketing themselves better and being more engaged with students activities so the students are aware of the talents on this years team and the winning potential they have this season.

Some more specifically the athletic department could promote individual players by placing posters of these players around campus giving a small description about the player and the skills he brings to the team.

This is an overall effort, therefore every one needs to play there part. We need to be bigger than basketball. By having more fans at basketball game we demonstrate a sense of community.

Tacos Nations

Taco'ing to Strangers CEDAR CITY, Utah --This past Tuesday, I gathered a diverse group of student with different cultural background to experience one of Cedar City's best local Mexican restaurants called Lupitas. One of the best things about SUU is the cultural diversity that gives this place a worldly energy. A place that no matter your cultural background you can find your place among caring and supportive community members. If just for a moment you feel lost, there is someone their to walk this new path with you and guide you. Its part of the reason I chose Taco Tuesday as a way to guide anyone who walking alone in the unknown to a place of the known. At first Taco Tuesday was just another reason to eat tacos like Cinco De Mayo or Quinceneras. It was a reason to meet up with friends and spend pocket change on delicious tacos. Even though Taco Tuesday has a catchy ring to it and that would be the preferred day to grab some tacos but a lot of people have busy work da...

Tacos Take over Tuesday

My family was homeless for the first four years of my life, so finding food was always challenge. Don't start crying now because surviving that part of my life was just the beginning of my struggles. On paper my name is Nestor Zapata but you can call me El Taco Tamer. I was born in Villermosa, Mexico but I was raised in Oceanside, California. Despite struggling to find food, tacos was never out of the questions when we had the ingredients to make tortillas because you could all sorts of tacos as along as you had tortillas.
