BOONE, N.C., Nov. 27, 2021 /PRNewswire-PRWeb/ -- Team Fastrax™
will perform their much-anticipated American Flag demonstration
jump as part of Appalachian State Mountaineers Senior Day game at
Kidd Brewer Stadium, Saturday, September
27th, 2021. The Mountaineers are a Division I FBS team in
the Sun Belt Conference and are facing their rival, the Georgia
Southern Eagles. The game starts at 2:30
pm, and as part of the opening ceremony, Team Fastrax™ will
jump in with their majestic 1,800 sq. ft. American Flag as well,
Appalachian State Flag, and a red, white and blue streamer. The
show will be displayed on the scoreboard with the team's live
air-to-ground video feed, so spectators at Kidd Brewer Stadium can
enjoy the experience on a whole new level.
John Hart, Owner of Start
Skydiving, and Founder of Team Fastrax™ said, "We are honored to be
performing our patriotic American Flag skydive for the Appalachian State senior day game, especially since
they are facing a rival. It's sure to be a great game."
According to the Appalachian State Football website,
App State's win at Troy last weekend
clinched a Sun Belt East Division title and a spot in next
weekend's conference championship game at West Division champion
Louisiana. In between, this
weekend's regular-season finale pits the Mountaineers (9-2, 6-1)
against Georgia Southern (3-8, 2-5) on
Black Saturday at Kidd Brewer Stadium. Limited tickets remain for
the ESPN+ game, which will begin at 2:30
p.m. With the NCAA granting an extra year of eligibility
following a COVID-influenced 2020 season, App State has sixth-year, fifth-year and
fourth-year "seniors" among the 28 players being recognized before
Saturday's game. App State has
played Georgia Southern 36 times since
1932 and faced the Eagles annually since they joined the
Mountaineers in the Southern Conference in 1993, but this is the
first time their matchup was scheduled in advance for the last
Saturday of the regular season. Last year's game was moved from
mid-October to Dec. 12 because of
COVID protocols, and App State won
34-26 with big fourth-quarter plays coming from Virgil (100-yard
kickoff return) and Nate Noel
(70-yard TD run).
