Bio:
We’re a group of ODU alums and supporters who have one goal: to get everyone as excited about ODU athletics as we are. We put on a variety of events for all ODU sports teams throughout the year. Our biggest events to date are our football tailgates in Blue Lot, including our annual Toys for Tots drive for the last home game of the season. That’s right – we’re about charity, too. In addition to raising funds for our student-athletes, we also give back to the community around our beloved school. And don’t forget about our podcast. The Monarchists Podcast covers all things ODU athletics: general coverage of all sports, in-depth football analysis, interviews with coaches and players, and gives details on our events and fundraising efforts.
