UNC-Pembroke unveils football uniforms

[Mountaineer]

With considerable fanfare, The University of North Carolina at Pembroke showcased its new football uniforms for the first time on Wednesday, November 15.

“It’s a classic,” said Mac Campbell, a 1968 graduate, former UNCP trustee and donor to the First and Ten Campaign for Football and Athletic Excellence. “I’m really excited about seeing them on the field in 2007.”

Yup, Pembroke was founded as Croatan Normal School and was originally a school to train Native American teachers and open only to the Lumbee indians of Robeson County, NC. :rotateh:
