2023 Morehouse Tuskegee Classic Program Book

MAYOR’S WELCOME LETTER

CITY OF BIRMINGHAM MAYOR RANDALL L. WOODFIN

October 7, 2023

Greetings Morehouse Tuskegee Classic Fans,

I’m so proud to welcome you to Birmingham for the Morehouse Tuskegee Classic, the next installment of the incredible rivalry between the Maroon and Golden Tigers.

And once again, we’re ready to make history.

The Morehouse Tuskegee Classic is the longest-running NCAA Division II classic. But perhaps most importantly it upholds our status as the premier destination for Historically Black College and University celebrations. Alabama is home to the most HBCUs in the nation. That means, no matter which school comes to our red clay, they’re on home turf. Whether you’re here for Morehouse or celebrating Tuskegee, know that you’re among family. During your time in Birmingham, please explore all that the city has to offer. Take a moment to stroll our green spaces downtown and experience amenities like City Walk. Be sure to indulge in our award-winning restaurants and, as we celebrate 60 years of the civil rights movement, take a moment to explore our rich history, too. The Morehouse Tuskegee Classic is a reflection of our deep honor and love of HBCU culture. Thank you for joining us to experience it firsthand.

Enjoy the game!

Mayor Randall L. Woodfin

710 NORTH 20TH ST. BIRMINGHAM, AL 35203 (205) 254-2771
