You’ve heard her before.

If you have watched a Northwestern basketball home game at any point in the last three years, you have heard Northwestern superfan Emily Harriott screaming at the top of her lungs, pretty much nonstop. Well, that era has come to an end, according to a story broken by the Chicago Tribune.

After receiving complaints from fans television partners, Northwestern has asked Emily Harriott to quiet down. The last straw came in Sunday’s game against Illinois. With a mausoleum-like atmosphere in Welsh-Ryan Arena, Harriott’s voice could be heard loud and clear across the country once again.
