2) Football Season Wrap-Up

The NCTAMC would like to extend a thank you to all of you who continued to show up week after week to watch our Aggies. Although we may not have had the best season, the generosity of the club has been overwhelming. This season we raised 848 dollars selling Blue Bell ice cream and NCTAMC t-shirts. As I mentioned throughout the season, all of the money raised will go towards funding our scholarship and our endowment. For those of you who do not know, every year the club raises money to fund a scholarship to give to a deserving Aggie from the National Capital Region. In addition to raising money for the scholarship, we are also trying to raise $5,000 this year for the endowment. The ultimate goal over the next five years is to raise $25,000 for the endowment. The NCTAMC is a non-profit organization and all donations to the club are tax deductible. If you would like to contribute to the scholarship/endowment, please contact Kelli Usé at kellilynnuse@gmail.com or 202-297-1000.

3) Aggie Basketball is Here

The Aggie Men's basketball team is 3-0 this season after beatingthe SMU Mustangs 80-68 this week in Dallas. Our nationally ranked women's team took on No. 6 ranked Duke and defeated them 95-77 in season opener. Looks like the Aggies are going to have a great basketball season... stay tuned for more information on possible Aggie Basketball game watching parties! Whoop!
