Miguel DaSilva, a former forward for the Lipscomb Bisons soccer team received three offers to go overseas and play professionally. That is not the story though. The story is where DaSilva chose to go play. DaSilva received offers from Finland, Portugal and his home country Angola. That last offer made his decision a lot easier. He signed with Santos FC of Angola in December and is expected to begin play with the club this month. Miguel first arrived in the states in 2001, just a day before the attacks of 9/11. Since arriving that day, he has not returned back to what he used to call home. “I always knew inside of me that I wanted to go back home once I graduated college,” said DaSilva, who earned his degree in international business last month. “When the deal was offered to me back home, (you) couldn’t imagine how excited I was. My family is there, friends, people that I miss daily and I haven’t seen them for about 10 years. I think that’s the place God wanted me to go.” Although he fought with injuries during his time at Lipscomb, DaSilva still posted 32 goals and 28 assists over four seasons. He tied for the team lead with eight goals last season, became the first Lipscomb player to earn all-region honors, and has prompted his coaches to call him the best player in Lipscomb’s history. Now it’s time to return to where life began, time to reconnect with family he hasn’t seen in a decade. “My mother never really saw me play when I grew up, so that’s one...

Remember that talented duo that performed in Shamblin a couple months back, sponsored by our SGA? Well, that same duo will be on The Tonight Show with Jay Leno this Thursday night along with Cameron Diaz and Eric Stonestreet. The Civil Wars, featuring Joy Williams and John Paul White, will be playing the title track from their forthcoming album “Barton Hollow.” Their album is set to drop on the first of next month. The Tonight Show booking comes after the duo played in Europe for the first time, and playing a string of sold out shows up and down the West Coast. The album release concert will be held at The Belcourt Theater here in Nashville on February 2nd. For your sake, we hope you ordered tickets early because it, too, is already sold out.
