On Thursday, Oct. 18, the annual Midnight Madness event took place in The Burrow. Every year at Midnight Madness both the women’s and men’s basketball teams are introduced to fans as music and games are played. This year, varied fraternities played against each other to provide entertainment. In addition, 1,000 free t-shirts were given away by the Program Board. Here’s our photo gallery recapping the night:
