Dear Hughes Stadium, this is what you meant to me

When I was a senior in high school, there was a part of me that wanted to go out of state for college. I watched as all my friends chose to go to places like Notre Dame, San Diego, Villanova and other incredible schools across the country.

I had scholarship offers from Gonzaga and Portland, giving me the impression that I was headed northwest. As it turned out, I decided that Fort Collins would be my home for the next four years.

It remains the best decision I’ve made in my life.

I met my amazing girlfriend and (hopefully) soon-to-be fiancé in the dorms.
