Bethany’s ‘Boomer and Books’ — First-year Bethany College (West Virginia) head coach Tim Weaver and three of his players traveled to a nearby preschool recently to kick off their new "Boomer and Books" program. Weaver, along with junior offensive lineman Justin Elkins, sophomore linebacker Ron Ermlick and sophomore defensive back Dante Fuscardo, spent time with 15 children. The program, named after Bethany’s mascot "Boomer," attracted several volunteers from the football team. At right, a future student-athlete tries on a helmet.
