April 15, 2024
Good Morning ODU Fam. To wrap up the Monarchs, we’ll turn it over to the great philosopher, DJ Khaled.
That’s right, we need to clear some space in the trophy case in Norfolk after another big weekend!
We’ve got all the details and much more in today’s Brew! Check it out below!
🎾 And Another One
🏈 All Wrapped Up
🏆 Clear More Space
👑 And much, much more!
👏 WHAT IT’S ALL ABOUT
On the final play of Saturday’s Charity Bowl Spring Game, nine-year old Ashton Donley scored a nine-yard touchdown. Donley, who has autism, is a participant in the Eliza Hope Foundation.
The Chartway Promise Foundation, the charitable arm of Chartway Credit Union awarded $1 million in grants this year to charity partners including the Eliza Hope Foundation.
The Eliza Hope Foundation and therapy center is a place for children with an autism diagnosis to receive all their therapeutic needs in one unique place.
📈 STOCK UP
🔼 And Another One! Clear more space in the trophy case, we’ve got more hardware coming to Norfolk.
The ODU women’s tennis team clinched its second consecutive Sun Belt Conference Championship with a weekend sweep of Coastal Carolina (6-1 on Friday) and Georgia Southern (4-3 on Saturday).
Dating back to mid-February, the Lady Monarchs have won 10 of their past 11 matches and have outscored conference opponents 49-10.
🔼 All Wrapped Up. Up next? Training camp in July.
The ODU football team wrapped up its spring preparation with the 55th annual Charity Bowl Spring Game on a beautiful Saturday afternoon at Kornblau Field at S.B. Ballard Stadium this past weekend.
Monarch fans saw flashes from the both the defense and offensive sides of the ball as the Blue and Grey battled for about two hours to wrap up their 15 day spring season.
🔼 While You’re Clearing Space... The ODU women’s tennis squad isn’t the only one adding to the trophy case in Norfolk.
In dominating fashion, the Monarchs men’s squad took down JMU 4-0 to clinch at least a share of the regular season conference title with Georgia Southern.
"I'm so happy for this group. They worked hard all year and going through a round Robin conference season is not easy. So many 4-3 matches all season in this conference and everybody is beating everybody. Going 7-1 and winning at least a share of the title is an accomplishment we should be proud of. We will enjoy this for a day and then get to work Monday for conference tournament," said ODU Head Coach Dominik Mueller.
🔼 Duking Them Out. Rivalries always bring an extra dose of energy.
That energy was at an extra high level this past weekend as the ODU baseball boys picked up a huge conference and rivalry win, taking two of three from JMU at the Bud over the weekend.
ODU opened the weekend with a 7-1 victory and then grinded out a 6-3 win in the series finale to take the series.
