The National Football League is, at least administratively, a man’s world. With a nearly all-male coaching staff (there are currently 12 female coaches, ranging from position coaches to interns) and male players populated the league’s publicity, the NFL is surely aware of its status as an organization for and by men. Yet one of the most iconic aspects of major league football is perhaps its most feminine—the cheerleaders.

Coming back from a 2-0 loss against Cortland, the Geneseo Ice Knights threw their Feb. 4, 2022 game under the rug like it was nothing—tonight's game (Feb. 5, 2022) was far more important.

With the hockey season coming up and everyone eager to go to the games and watch the gloves drop, who wouldn’t be excited. With a little preview of how this upcoming season will be, the Lamron was given the honor to interview our freshman goalie Adam Harris. He is very excited to play his first season here for the Knights.

The NFL reopening. This season the NFL more closely resembles something from the pre-covid era. The stands are full, and all that is heard is the cheering of the fans. There is a sense of normalcy when watching the new season. It is almost reassuring to see it.

Last year, the NFL games seemed like something from another world. The stands were empty, and you could hear the teams in their huddle. There was much more of a somber tone and in many ways, it was just a reminder of how different the world was and in many ways is still.

The soccer game was decorated with cotton candy skies and a crisp fall breeze. Oh yeah, speaking of breezes—there goes freshman midfielder Stefen Nikolic breezing by the Alfred Saxons defense and scoring the very first goal of the game for the Knights! With just five minutes in the first half, Nikolic didn’t let anyone stop him as he pushed through the crowded offensive zone and shot the ball to the top left corner of the net. What a great way to start off tonight’s game.

Tuesday’s men’s soccer game versus the Rochester Yellowjackets was something to see: the match, going into two overtime periods, left everyone in the stands on the edge of their seats. These boys held their own and didn’t give up—something us Knights take pride in.
