All Glory to God! I’m beyond thankful and honored to receive the Willie Wells Memorial Scholarship. Huge thank you to the Nolan Ryan Foundation for believing in me, and everyone who has supported me.🙏🏾

Last night, Alijah, a @HTbaseball_ student-athlete, was awarded the Willie Wells Memorial Scholarship presented by the Nolan Ryan Foundation to help fund his continuing education at @HustonTillotson.
We wish him the best both on the diamond and in the classroom!

ICYMI: Here's how @Harding_FB head coach @PaulSimmonsHU ended his press conference yesterday.
You can see just how much this team (and the seniors especially) means to Coach Simmons.
The Bisons will play for a national title Saturday at 3.

Congrats to @osborne__era for breaking two school records! Now the record holder in TDs and rushing yards. When you think of the career of the great DaBryan Blanton, you know it’s a big deal. What a career and he STILL ISNT DONE!!! #AKR

The Jackrabbits have another all-time school record holder with @LandryHopkins1 ! 452 career tackles and he isn’t done! This guy is the most instinctive LB I have been around and he’s been doing it since he was a freshman! Congrats Hop! #AKR
