More than 425 student-athletes, coaches, staff members and administrators from the University of Nebraska at Kearney Athletic Department participated in UNK’s annual “Here Come The Lopers” event Saturday. Sporting T-shirts with the slogan “I run with the herd,” they visited businesses in the downtown area and along Second Avenue, handing out Loper team schedules, sharing ticket information, snapping photos, picking up trash and talking with local residents along the way. The event gives UNK athletes a chance to show their appreciation for the support they receive from the community while also promoting their programs.
