“You don’t expect to have that many students attending games at a small school, but once you get there, everybody is invested. Everybody is supporting each other, everybody is standing, everybody is chanting, yelling and screaming. It feels like a Power Five atmosphere.”

President and Founder, Lippy Lunatics

Liza Corso ('25)

“My experience at Lipscomb has played a huge role in my Paralympic medal because of all the people who have supported me, both teammates and coaches, and given me this opportunity to come out here and perform my best.”
