ULM announces new tradition: Super Warhawk Weekend April 18-20


Super Warhawk Weekend


ULM’s first annual Super Warhawk Weekend—a mixture of crawfish, football, opera, and more—will offer something for everyone April 18 – 20.

President James Cofer encourages the community to attend.

“Super Warhawk Weekend celebrates the variety of activities we offer at ULM. This weekend features our solid athletic programs, showcases our outstanding talent in the School of Visual and Performing Arts, and it supports a long-standing tradition, the Alumni Association’s La' Louisianne Crawfish Boil.”

The annual La’Louisianne Crawfish Boil on Saturday, from 2 p.m. - 4 p.m. behind Malone Stadium, includes all-you-can-eat crawfish, trimmings, beverages and entertainment by the Mason Grenade Band. Also that day, ULM football will host its annual Maroon and Gold game. ULM Opera “Suor Angelica” & “Gianni Schicchi” by Puccinni begins Thursday evening and runs through Sunday in Brown Auditorium.
