The University of Maine is home to Black Bear football, and is now home to the first UMaine team to start a season with a 9 – 1 record. Therefore our Campus Celebrity this week is our very own football team!
On Saturday, November 9 2013, UMaine football defeated Albany in a 33 – 27 victory to gain this title in their sixth straight win of the season. The team now has the best start in UMaine history. One player, Christophe Mulumba, was even named the Colonial Athletic Association Rookie of the Week for the fourth time.
The team is fighting for one of 24 spots in the Football Championship Subdivision playoffs. Winning their game this Saturday could mean a first ever CAA title for Maine and we wish them the best of luck.
Make sure to support our Her Campus celebrity of the week in their last home game of the season on Saturday, November 16, 2013 where they take on Rhode Island in Senior Day. GO BLUE!
