Student veterans, cadets and midshipmen will compete for the third annual flag football tournament title to honor America’s service members as part of Arizona State University’s annual Salute to Service celebration.

“This event is a great opportunity for Sun Devils to show their support to the men and women who have served or are planning to serve in our nation’s military,” said Paul LePore, associate dean for student and academic programs in the College of Liberal Arts and Sciences.

LePore said the college takes pride in helping ASU — which received the designation of a Military Friendly School for the ninth consecutive year — fulfill its commitment to the military, active-duty members of the armed forces and veterans and their dependents.

The college will host the third annual Salute to Service flag football tournament on Sunday, Nov. 4, from 9 a.m. to 2 p.m. at Sun Devil Stadium. Fans are encouraged to join the college for a morning of competition, community and camaraderie.

Since the founding of the Department of Military Science in 1935, the college has been the proud sponsor of ASU’s three Reserve Officer Training Corps programs. ROTC cadets and midshipmen from aerospace studies, military science and naval science, along with student veterans from Pat Tillman Veterans Center, will contend for the esteemed Dean’s Cup.

The event is free and open to the public. Fans should enter Sun Devil Stadium at the southwest entrance.

In celebration of Veterans Day, Arizona State University proudly honors veterans and active members of the military through Salute to Service. Your support helps veterans succeed.
