2021 Homecoming Football Game

    The 2021 Homecoming week at Ohio Northern University has come and gone again and it was one to remember. The most memorable event during this week was the football game I attended at Dial-Robertson Stadium between Marietta and Ohio Northern. All of my teammates and I attended the game and we had a blast cheering on the Polar Bears!

    This matchup between Ohio Northern and Marietta is what I did for my Live Tweeting Assignment and I enjoyed doing this and having fun with the social media impact on Twitter. For this assignment we had to live tweet an event during Homecoming week and I chose to do this. I had a visual, a retweet and then I shared my tweets and updates about the game on my Twitter account and this was a great way to get used to the social media side of things. I let my followers on Twitter know a day before the game what I would be doing and what I would be tweeting about and then 15 minutes before kickoff I tried to set the scene and what was happening. I tweeted updates until halftime and enjoyed watching the game at the same time. 

    It was indeed a crazy game and Ohio Northern brought home the win 34-33 on a last second touchdown by Austin Eick. The game started out very slow which included a score of 7-3 at halftime and then the tables turned after that and it became a very high scoring game. Ohio Northern was led by quarterback Brody Hahn with 4 touchdowns and Austin Eick who had three receiving touchdowns. The Polar Bear football team is very exciting to watch and have a great team this season including being 4-1 going into a bye week for Fall Break. It was awesome to be able to attend the game with other fellow students and to see the crowd on hand to support our University was truly amazing.

    I had a blast doing this assignment and I would do it over again if we had too. It was fun to be behind the screen on Twitter and see first-hand what goes into live tweeting during an event. Go Bears!

Marketing Campaigns

    We can use many things in the social media world to our advantage, including social media marketing campaigns. In short, it is a campaign used to target an audience and advance your business and company in the long-run. It can also come from actions that can lead to influencers or audience to certain types of things. These campaigns can be most affective just like a lot of other things and that is by setting your goals and audience before you start your campaign.      You need to know where you want your campaign located at and what you want it to do. For example, social media is the main spot but you can also have it in other spots that can reach awareness also. Having your target audience is important, but you also want to know what the people in your target audience are interested with. For example, the social media apps that they are most active on, older people are more active on Facebook versus Snapchat, so it is important to know that. Also, setting a...

College Football Playoffs

     In 2014, college football finally introduced the idea we had been waiting on, The College Football Playoffs. This meant that instead of only two teams getting a chance at the national championship, it would know be four teams. Everyone that enjoys college football was very happy when this was announced.       The first year it was introduced, the final four teams happened to be Ohio State, Oregon, Alabama, and Florida State. In the first round, Oregon defeated Florida State and Ohio State defeated Alabama in an instant classic. This meant it would end up being Oregon versus Ohio State in the championship game. Ohio State went on to defeat Oregon by a score of 42-20 and celebrated winning the first ever college football national championship. I still remember Ohio State winning this game and I lost my mind. I thought it was awesome to see Ohio State win the national championship, but especially with it being the first year of the playoffs. ] ...

First Half, First Semester

    My senior year of college is flying right by. It is crazy to think we are almost complete with the first six weeks of the semester. It seems like just yesterday I was moving back into my house for the school year. I am trying to cherish every moment this year and slow time down as much as possible because the real world is sitting on my doorstep.        This semester has been good for me so far. Since I moved in six weeks ago, I have been back home for a total of four hours, which can be hard for me sometimes. I finally got home last Saturday for a couple hours and it was fantastic. I got to see my family and go out to eat with them at Side Rail in Wapakoneta. Those are the moments I will never trade for the world, and I always cherish them. Busy has been an understatement this semester. Between practices, classes, and projects, I have been moving non-stop since I came back to Ada. Some people have mixed feelings about always being busy, but I love it. ...
