Cornhole competition builds campus connection

Texas A&M University-Victoria students and employees put their claws out during the Jaguar Championship Series: Cornhole event on Tuesday, Sept. 29, at the Health & Wellness Center. The Jaguar Championship Series offers students a set of fun, casual mini competitions, beginning with a one-day cornhole tournament where the top student plays a faculty or staff member. On Tuesday, students competed against each other tournament styled, with the top student taking on Randall Jasek, A&M-Victoria senior network administrator. The series is planned to be hosted once a month, potentially increasing to twice a month if interest grows. The goal is to help students and campus employees connect, get to know one another and give students opportunities to find mentors on campus.
