 Rob Winger reporting live from the Stevenson Mustang Gala the first annual here joined with our first guest of the evening Stevenson men's volleyball junior Alex Klunk Alex welcome to the show. Thank you Rob. Appreciate it So just give us your opening impressions from the gal. We've had the athletic banquet in the past I know you've been tuned been a part of Gals got a little bit of a different feel to it. Why don't you talk on that for a second? Well, it's a great opportunity for the students to get together of course, which is really nice and seeing everybody dressed up in Their great dresses and suits like yourself is really enjoyable Thank you Alex now I know you've had the chance to do some different formal events like this in the past last year You actually had the chance to go to the NFL Draft and do a little bit behind the scenes stuff so Stevenson's division 3 institution obviously doesn't always get spot in the limelight But they try to give their student athletes a chance to feel that they are in the limelight during events like these and Just tell me what it means to as a student athlete to have that kind of recognition from your university Well getting the backing from a university is great. Brett Adams our athletic director does an amazing job Backing every student athlete in all the programs. So getting that assistance from the faculty definitely helps the athletes in their track Yeah, I mean Having been a student athlete here I can certainly say you you receive a ton of support from the faculty and staff especially our athletics department If you could have one suggestion something you want to see from the gal tonight What's your goal that you could you would like to see accomplished tonight from the gal a Goal, I wouldn't always say a goal. I mean, it's just a great opportunity for everyone to come together But I will say I'm very happy to have you back here with us Rob It was it's great to see you again.
