Arriving in Style:

After much anticipation, teams began arriving on campus and registering as early as Tuesday morning. As is often the case, many teams arrived in style with decorated vans and lots of DI spirit! The excitement levels continued to rise as the time neared opening ceremonies; throughout the early parts of the week, teams could be found trading pins, unpacking props, or just having fun and soaking up the electrifying atmosphere that is so unique to the DI program.
