Miami...

Matt and Quinn Littlefield with Marshall Smith...

... in January was never so sweet! As Irish fans were invaded Miami to cheer on their team, so too the Stedsmen! Coming from all corners of the country, from Los Angeles to Tampa, from Pasadena to Martha's Vineyard, and all points in between, Stedsmen descended upon the "305," doing what they could to help ensure a victory at the Orange Bowl. And like the ND March Band, the Stedsmen rose to the occasion and did their part... for the team and of course, for Hall and King too! On attending the Orange Bowl, Matt Littlefield, father of Quinn Littlefield and wearing the official Steds baseball jersey, stated, "Steds repping in Miami!"

And up the road a bit, in Pensacola to be exact, another Steds gathering was happening between former RA and resident. That's right, Peter Raus, former first floor Steds RA and  resident Californian, watched the game with his former first floor watch, Levi Cherek, now Steds senior and resident Floridian, at a local, pro-ND watering hole. On watching the game on TV, Raus shared, " we cheered on the Irish in Florida, well, as far from Miami as possible while STILL being in the same state. Go Irish!"

Everyone's favorite podcast, In the Red Room, is on hiatus and will return once the new academic semester starts. Remember, good things come to those who wait!
