Reel Time with Rick Dickson: A Senior Salute
In the latest Reel Time with Rick Dickson, Tulane’s Director of Athletics pays tribute to the 2010 senior class as the group is in the midst of completing their final exams for the last time and looking toward next week’s graduation. Dickson reminisces about how quickly these wide-eyed freshmen quickly mature into adults during their time at Tulane and go out and become great ambassadors for the University.
He also looks to the Green Wave baseball and track & field teams as they are the only remaining sports still participating in regular season play, while the TU women’s golf team is competing at the NCAA East Regionals.
Dickson also explained the recently announced game times for Tulane’s seven-game home football schedule and the season-opening game against a local team, Southeastern Louisiana, on Sept. 2 and hosting Ole Miss at home for the first time in 13 years on Sept. 11.
Dickson also looked back on Tulane’s Student-Athlete Awards Banquet on April 25, which annually honors the Green Wave’s seniors, teams and award winners.
