Tinara Moore accepts an award during the Chippy Award Show in Plachta Auditorium, Sunday, April 17, 2016.
Student-athletes, coaches, professors, fans and Special Olympic athletes filled Plachta Auditorium Sunday for the eighth Chippys Award Show, presenting the best in CMU athletics, as voted by the fans.
The award show was started eight years ago by two baseball players to celebrate the success of student-athletes. Three years ago, the Chippys paired up with Special Olympics Michigan to honor their athletes as well. All proceeds benefited the Special Olympics.
The award show started off with a comical video montage, introducing hosts senior baseball infielder Joe Houlihan and senior football defensive tackle Shafer Johnson.
