BLOG: Shaw U Does it Again!!

The Bears of Shaw University defeated Elizabeth City State on Saturday to repeat as the CIAA Conference Championship and put an end to yet another exciting season of CIAA football.  The Bears just proved to be too much for the Vikings indicated by a 36-7 score.  This is the first time the Bears and its nationally-ranked defense has won back-to-back Conference titles.

 

The CIAA Mobile Marketing Tour was, again, on the scene as the football season comes to an end, prompting the beginning of basketball season… which means countdown to the CIAA basketball Tournament officially begins!!  It’s not that far away ladies and gentlemen!!  Can you feel it?? Are you ready to Rock the Rim??!!
