Loy Center was filled with enthusiasm as potential new sorority members "ran home" for bid day on Jan. 29. Bid day is the final day of Panhellenic recruitment when potential new members, or PNMs, are formerly invited to join a specific sorority chapter. Panhellenic recruitment started on Sunday, Jan. 26 when PNMs visited each sorority individually, and ended with bid day on Wednesday, Jan. 29.
The revolving door of the transfer portal has reached Elon University Football as the program has lost key defensive players to the portal, as well as adding five transfers after the winter transfer window opened Dec. 9.
All six transfer losses were expected to start next year. The losses include former All-American Caleb Curtain, linebacker Marco Patierno, defensive lineman Chuck Nnaeto, edge rusher Cazeem Moore, linebacker Brandon Tyson and tight end Cody Hardy. Curtain and Moore were anchors of the 2024 defense that the program will need to fill through the portal and the incoming class of 14 freshmen.
Curtain transferred to the University of North Carolina at Charlotte, Patierno went to Eastern Michigan University, Moore headed to the University of Virginia, Tyson transferred to Georgia Southern University, Hardy went to North Carolina State University and Nnaeto went to Boston College University. All six players are moving up from the Football Championship Subdivision to Football Bowl Subdivision programs, a valuable promotion.
