JCU Lady Gladiators dominate UER!

On this rainy Wednesday night, the JCU Lady Gladiators took on Università Europea di Roma.
Although it was a friendly game, both teams were prepared to fight. However, early on our Gladiators began to dominate. We were lucky enough to have an official referee, and a serious match regardless of the weather. We had a couple JCU fans to cheer our Gladiators on.

Gladiator Day!

Last Friday, a group of JCU Gladiators, led by our wonderful athletic coordinators Marco Iorio and Alex Sabelli, and our helpful guide Carolina Tortorici, arrived in Civita di Bagnoreggio to hike through the famous “calanchi”.  Although the group experienced some very muddy challenges due to the previous nights weather, they made it through and enjoyed one of the most beautiful views of this unique area.
