“These alumni games get a lot more competitive than people might think,” Sullivan said with a laugh. “Once some of these former players get back on the field it’s like they never left and sometimes that competitive spirit comes back out in a hurry.”

FULTON, MS – Coach Mike Sullivan recently announced the schedule for the programs' Meet the Indians to be held on Saturday, August 16th at the ICC Soccer Complex on the Fulton Campus.
"This is always a great way to get the season started for both our teams," said Sullivan. "This event always has a buzz about it that really seems to rub off on the players and helps them get motivated for the season and it also helps the freshmen know what it feels like to play in a collegiate atmosphere."
The event will start with the introduction of the members of the 2014 Lady Indians and Indians soccer teams at 12:00 p.m. and will be followed by the Lady Indians' Alumni game schedule to run from 12:30 to 2:00 p.m.
"These alumni games get a lot more competitive than people might think," Sullivan said with a laugh. "Once some of these former players get back on the field it's like they never left and sometimes that competitive spirit comes back out in a hurry."
The defending MACJC North Division Champion Indians will host an intrasquad scrimmage to showcase the members of this year's team before concluding the day with the Indians' Alumni vs Alumni game.
"We had tons of guys show up for this last season and already have a lot more planning to come back for this year's event," said Sullivan. "Even if you don't want to play we would love to have as many former players and family members come back to be a part of the event to help make it extra special for everyone to enjoy."
Coach Sullivan and assistant coach Cody Carson are currently working on additional plans for the event.
If you are an alumnus and will be attending or want to participate in this year's event contact Coach Sullivan at mjsullivan@iccms.edu or Coach Carson at cpcarson@iccms.edu.
