FAU Football vs Memphsis, New Orleans BOWL, December 21, 2007, 7pm, FAU 44, Memphsis 27. : NEW ORLEANS (AP) -- Howard Schnellenberger's reaction to having a bucket of icy sports drink dumped on him showed precisely why Florida Atlantic chose him to build their fledgling football program. The 73-year-old coach didn't flinch. He'd been there before. Now so has the team he started from scratch. Rusty Smith threw for 336 yards and a New Orleans Bowl record five touchdowns to lead Florida Atlantic to a 44-27 victory over Memphis on Friday night. "Obviously, we're really proud," Schnellenberger said. "We have a strong squad. I think we can compete with America." It was the first bowl game for FAU, which has had a football team for only seven seasons at its Boca Raton, Fla., campus and didn't join the NCAA's Bowl Subdivision (formerly Division I-A) until 2005. The victory was especially sweet for Owls players who had gotten all too used to the comedic refrain, "F-A-who?" when they would visit opponents whose teams had far more tradition. "People are now going to recognize and know who we are," said DiIvory Edgecomb, who scored two touchdowns and set up two other scores with kickoff returns of 42 and 62 yards. The game also marked another meaningful step for the young Sun Belt Conference. The league champion has now won three of seven New Orleans Bowls, including the past two by convincing margins, with Troy beating Rice 41-17 last year. It certainly wasn't the highest-profile bowl victory for Schnellenberger, who led Miami to the 1983 national championship with an Orange Bowl triumph over Nebraska. He is now 5-0 in bowl games over his 23 seasons as a head coach. He won the 1980 Peach Bowl with Miami and two bowl games with Louisville, the 1990 Fiesta Bowl and the 1993 Liberty Bowl. Still, this one had to be special, given that he is the father of FAU's program and the only head coach the Owls have ever known. The coach spoke warmly of his players, most of them from south Florida, who had faith in him. "They came in with the understanding that this was an opportunity for them to let their football lives have great meaning," Schnellenberger said. "They knew they were going to have to work harder, sacrifice more, sometimes be made fun of, but kept the faith and grew together until we got to the point now where we can compete with anybody in the nation." Florida Atlantic started fast and never trailed. Smith had 102 yards passing and a pair of touchdown tosses in the first 10 minutes. His second, a short pass that Edgecomb turned into a 29-yard score, gave FAU a 17-7 lead. Memphis quarterback Martin Hankins helped the Tigers keep the game competitive into the second half, throwing for 283 yards and three touchdowns. The Tigers got as close as 30-27 after his 6-yard touchdown to Carlos Singleton. But Memphis' next possession ended with a punt that Wilfred Rivera blocked to give the Owls the ball on the Tigers 19. Smith cashed in two plays later, finding Jason Harmon in the end zone for a 16-yard score and a 37-27 FAU lead. Hankins then left the game late in the third quarter with a right leg injury after getting tangled up in a heap of players after releasing a pass. Reserve quarterbacks Will Hudgens and Matt Malouf finished the game for Memphis, which couldn't muster a significant threat in the final quarter. "The blocked punt I thought was the turning point in the game," Memphis head coach Tommy West said. "It took the air out of us, then we lost our quarterback and it kind of went downhill from there." Smith, the game's most valuable player, also had touchdown passes of 4 yards to Charles Pierre, 16 yards to Chris Bonner and 4 yards to Willie Rose. "I'm so happy to help the team come to a victory in our first bowl appearance," Smith said. "I don't care if I throw for five interceptions. If we win, that's all that matters." Smith finished the season with 3,688 yards passing and 32 touchdowns. Only a sophomore, he could be around for many more victories in FAU's future.

Rolling Thunder Washington DC Memorial Day 2005 Honoring Veterans : Ride For Freedom XVIII, May 29th, 2005 - Rolling Thunder®, Inc.'s major function is to publicize the POW-MIA issue. To educate the public of the fact that many American prisoners of war were left behind after all past wars. To help correct the past and to protect the future veterans from being left behind should they become prisoners of war-missing in action. We are committed to helping American veterans from all wars. May 25, 2008: Rolling Thunder roared into Washington, D.C., on Sunday for its annual veterans tribute, bringing together an estimated 350,000 motorcyclists — along with thousands of activists, fans and spectators. Bikers from the group's 88 chapters —across the country and overseas— came together to bring attention to U.S. service members held captive or missing in action. Riders took off on their rumbling "Ride For Freedom," driving from the Pentagon, across the Potomac River by way of the Memorial Bridge and on to the Vietnam Veterans Memorial. The party-like atmosphere was punctuated by speeches, tributes and music. Actor John Amos, who read Gen. Colin Powell's "A Letter to a Soldier" lent his voice to the cause. "This is the most important gathering I have ever been apart of. I share their convictions that all these men and woman must be accounted for. We live in the greatest country in the world, and a gathering like this confirms that we have more freedom," Amos said. President Bush also met with some of the group's organizers, and described the parade of motorcycles — many adorned with the American flag as "a magnificent sight. "I am just so honored, and I want to thank you and all your comrades for being patriotic and loving our country as much as you do," said Bush. Organizers then presented President Bush with a leather biker's vest and cap. Rolling Thunder 21, along with honoring the families of fallen and missing service members, are advocating for the fair treatment of veterans returning from the wars in Iraq and Afghanistan.
