Good-Bye, University Hall


Typically, the Junell Center is the place where ASU fans come to watch our basketball and volleyball teams play. Other special events, like concerts and banquets have been held there as well.
But on Sunday morning, it was the outside of the Junell Center where spectators sat, or stood, to watch the implosion of University Hall.
After a siren and a series of loud "booms," University Hall came tumbling down.
Although not a sports event, it was an event that many ASU fans came to witness, so they could say "I was there" when the dorm, also known as the Women's Highrise, came down.
Some cheered when it was done, but for some, it was a solemn moment. A piece of ASU history, and a part of the San Angelo skyline, gone forever.
