Way to go, team! Don't forget the Bowl Watch Party on Saturday, December 29, at 4 p.m. when KSU meets Syracuse University at the Insight.com bowl! Plan to be there! Let's not forget the reason for our celebration this 25th of December. We are all truly thankful for our faith in God, for our families and friends, and for this wonderful country in which we live. We pray that the year 2002 will not be so difficult for so many of our fellow Americans. Follow the star to a blessed Christmas holiday. But don't forget December 29! Go Cats!
