An Elon Football Odyssey
A special release podcast.
This is a remembrance of how Elon University and its football program were intertwined with a terrorist event of incomprehensible proportions, each forever woven throughout time. It’s been 20 years since our nation fell under attack and this is a story deserving to be told. Dozens of voices lend their perspectives in this compelling three-part series.
