TAILGATE WITH THE EMCC LIONS 
No. 26 Pat Shed of Starkville, right, a running back for East Mississippi
Community College, visits with assistant football coach Willie Gillespie
of Starkville High School as Lion fans tailgate in Scooba before the
Homecoming game. Tailgating is new to Lion Country, but it’s a gridiron
tradition the college plans to continue as EMCC hosts Itawamba Community
College Saturday, Oct. 18, at West Point High School. The public is invited
to come early and tailgate with EMCC families and fans, who will gather
from 9:30 a.m. until 12:30 p.m. just north of the football field at
West Point. Kick-off is at 1 p.m. For more information about
EMCC tailgating, call Jenny Box at (662) 476-5032.
