DID YOU SEE THAT SUNRISE THIS MORNING?
YES! ALL OF THE PINKS AND BLUES IN THE SKY WERE SO BEAUTIFUL. I KNOW OUR SYDNEY STAPLES LOVES SUNRISES, SO LET’S SEE WHAT SHE HAS TO SAY ABOUT IT.
HEY, GUYS. I MEAN, THIS MORNING ON MY WAY UP HERE I WAS REALLY ENJOYING THE SUNSET. OR SUNRISE, RATHER. BUT SPEAKING OF THIS MORNING, I BROUGHT THIS SWEATSHIRT WITH ME BECAUSE I FIGURED IT WAS GOING TO BE COLD, CONSIDERING IT STARTED AT LIKE 48 DEGREES. BUT I REALLY DON’T THINK I’M GOING TO BE NEEDING IT FOR THE REST OF THE DAY. SO AS WE GET UP INTO THE SEVENTIES AND I MEAN I’M GOING TO HOLD ON TO THAT HOT WEATHER AS LONG AS I CAN, CONSIDERING THAT I’M NOT REALLY READY FOR IT TO TURN COLD, BECAUSE I KNOW THAT THAT MEANS WINTER IS COMING. BUT OTHER THAN THAT, FEELS GOOD OUT HERE. I’LL SEE YOU GUYS BACK INSIDE.
CAMPUS WILL BE FILLED WITH LOTS OF MOMS, DADS, GRANDPARENTS, AUNTS AND UNCLES THIS WEEKEND.
THAT’S BECAUSE IT’S FAMILY WEEKEND ON CAMPUS, A YEARLY TRADITION IN WHICH FAMILIES ARE INVITED BACK TO SYRACUSE TO ENJOY A NUMBER OF FUN FILLED ACTIVITIES.
PART OF FAMILY WEEKEND INCLUDES THE S-U FOOTBALL GAME THIS WEEKEND AND PRESENTATIONS AND TOURS OF ALL THE SCHOOLS AND COLLEGES ON CAMPUS, INCLUDING THE BEST, WHICH WOULD BE NEWHOUSE.
THERE IS A FEE OF 50 DOLLARS AND FAMILIES ARE ENCOURAGED TO REGISTER AT EXPERIENCE.SYRACUSE.EDU.
OVER THE WEEKEND, SORORITIES AND FRATERNITIES PART OF THE DIVINE NINE PUT ON QUITE A SHOW FOR THE CAMPUS OF SYRACUSE.
OUR MORNINGS ON THE HILL REPORTER JAILAH PETTIS IS LIVE AT HENDRICKS CHAPEL TO SHARE MORE ABOUT THIS STORY.
QUAD FREAK IS AN ANNUAL YARD SHOW HOSTED BY THE NATIONAL PAN-HELLENIC COUNCIL HERE AT SYRACUSE. THIS YEAR WAS THE FIRST TIME THE EVENT OCCURRED SINCE THE PANDEMIC.
OVER THE WEEKEND 6 DIVINE NINE ORGANIZATIONS PERFORMED AT HENDRICKS CHAPEL.
QUAD FREAK NORMALLY TAKES PLACE IN THE SPRING BUT THE COUNCIL DECIDED TO BRING IT BACK THIS SEMESTER.
NPHC PRESIDENT SIMONE BELLOT EXPLAINS THE IMPORTANCE OF HOSTING EVENTS LIKE THIS.
WHEN WE COME TOGETHER AND DO A BIG EVENT LIKE THIS, IT’S ALWAYS, YOU KNOW, A REALLY GOOD TIME. EVERYONE BRINGS OTHER MEMBERS OF THE ORGANIZATION UP AND IT’S REALLY GOOD JUST TO FELLOWSHIP.
THIS EVENT ALLOWED SORORITIES AND FRATERNITIES TO SHARE THEIR HISTORY AND SHOWCASE WHAT EACH GREEK ORGANIZATION MEANS TO THE BLACK COMMUNITY.
NPHC COMMUNITY SERVICE CHAIR JORDAN PIERRE DEFINED WHAT GREEK UNITY MEANT TO HIM
GREEK UNITY FOR ME IS CREATING A SPACE FOR BLACK YOUNG MEN AND WOMEN TO FIND A SPACE WHERE THEY FEEL A SENSE OF BELONGING, ESPECIALLY TODAY.
THE YARD SHOW CREATED AN OPPORTUNITY FOR OLDER, CURRENT, AND VISITING MEMBERS TO REPRESENT THEIR ORGANIZATIONS IN ONE PLACE.
PRESENT MEMBERS CONCLUDED THE EVENT WITH A GREEK UNITY STROLL SHOWING HOW THEY HOLD THE YARD DOWN HERE AT SYRACUSE UNIVERSITY.
TO STAY IN THE LOOP WITH MORE EVENTS HOSTED BY THE NATIONAL PAN-HELLENIC COUNCIL HEAD OVER TO THEIR INSTAGRAM PAGE AT NPHC_CUSE. LIVE AT HENDRICKS CHAPEL, FOR MORNINGS ON THE HILL I’M JAILAH PETTIS.
THANKS JAILAH. SYRACUSE UNIVERSITY HAS RECEIVED PERMISSION TO ADD NEW JMA WIRELESS SIGNS TO THE DOME
THE SYRACUSE CITY PLANNING COMMISSION GRANTED THE UNIVERSITY PERMISSION YESTERDAY
THE SIGN IS PLANNED TO BE TWENTY-TWO-HUNDRED SQUARE FEET OR AROUND 12 YARDS WHICH IS A LITTLE MORE THAN A FIRST DOWN AND WILL BE PLACED ON THE DOME’S ROOF.
COMING UP ON MORNINGS ON THE HILL — S-U STUDENTS CAN NOW ENJOY A SPECIAL DISCOUNT FOR GOLFING AND TENNIS ACTIVITIES NEAR SOUTH CAMPUS.
LGBTQ PLUS HISTORY MONTH IS IN FULL SWING AS SYRACUSE UNIVERSITY CELEBRATES WITH A STRING OF ACTIVITIES.
WELCOME BACK TO MORINGS ON THE HILL. GOLFING IN THE COLDER WEATHER IS ONE OF MY PERSONAL FAVORITE FALL ACTIVITIES
MADDIE MUSTION JOINS US LIVE ON THE QUAD TO TELL US WHERE SU STUDENTS CAN HIT THE LINKS.
DRUMLINS GOLF CLUB HAS PLENTY OF DIFFERENT WAYS YOU CAN STAY ACTIVE THIS FALL RIGHT DOWN THE STREET FROM SOUTH CAMPUS.
WE HAVE TWO 18 HOLE COURSES. ONE WHICH IS COMPLETELY PRIVATE AND THE OTHER ONE IS PUBLIC. AND IT’S PUBLIC AND WE ACTUALLY HAVE A NUMBER OF SU STUDENTS WHO ARE ALLOWED TO PLAY THERE. AND THEN WE ALSO OBVIOUSLY HAVE TENNIS. TENNIS IS OBVIOUSLY AN INDOOR SPORT AND A LOT OF OUR GOLF MEMBERS ACTUALLY TRANSITION INTO TENNIS.
WALKER BLOSSEY, A GOLF CLUB ASSISTANT AT DRUMLINS, SAYS THAT THE COURSE IS THE PLACE YOU’LL WANT TO BE THIS SEASON.
BUT YOU CAN PROBABLY SEE BEHIND ME THERE’S NOT MUCH PLAY JUST DUE TO THE COLDER WEATHER, BUT IT’S ACTUALLY PROBABLY ONE OF THE BEST TIMES TO PLAY BECAUSE OF THE LITTLE PLAY. YOU’RE NEVER GOING TO RUN INTO TOO MANY DIVOTS OR TOO MANY PUNCH MARKS. YOU’RE GOING BE ABLE TO FLY AROUND THE COURSE. I KNOW WE PLAYED A ROUND OF 18 WITH A CART THE OTHER DAY IN LIKE TWO AND A HALF HOURS. SO IT WAS NICE TO GET OUT AFTER CLASS OR AFTER WORK AND BE ABLE TO JUST PLAY A LITTLE BIT AND NOT HAVE TO WORRY ABOUT TRAFFIC.
BUT IN ORDER TO BE COMFORTABLE DURING YOUR ROUND, YOU’RE GOING TO HAVE TO DRESS ACCORDINGLY.
I SUGGEST A LONG SLEEVE, THAT’S FOR SURE. I’M IN SHORT SLEEVES RIGHT NOW. IT’S A LITTLE CHILLY. I WOULDN’T WEAR A WINTER HAT. I WOULD WEAR A HOOD. THE WINTER HATS DEFINITELY GET A LITTLE TOO WARM AS YOU’RE WALKING THE COURSE, BUT DEFINITELY PANTS AND A LONG SLEEVE.
DRUMLINS GOLF CLUB IS LOCATED JUST DOWN THE STREET FROM SOUTH CAMPUS AND IS ON THE SU CENTRO BUS LINE.
IF YOU ARE INTERESTED IN PLAYING A ROUND OR PICKING UP TENNIS THIS FALL, YOU CAN CHECK OUT THE RATES AND HOURS AT THEIR WEBSITE BELOW.
LIVE ON THE QUAD FOR MORNINGS ON THE HILL, I’M MADDIE MUSTION.
THAKS MADDIE. FIRE PREVENTION WEEK CONTINUES TO TEACH PEOPLE ABOUT GENERAL SAFETY PRACTICES THEY SHOULD KEEP IN MIND.
DEPUTY CHIEF OF THE FIRE PREVENTION BUREAU SAYS THE DEPARTMENT IS COLLABORATING WITH OTHER COMMUNITIES TO PROMOTE SAFETY.
FIRE PREVENTION WEEK. YOU KNOW, WE’RE GOING TO HAVE THINGS HERE ABOUT YOU KNOW, ABOUT BICYCLE HELMET SAFETY. WE HAVE THE POLICE DEPARTMENT THERE. SO IT’S NOT JUST ABOUT FIRE SAFETY. IT’S JUST ABOUT BEING SAFETY, BEING SAFE ALL AROUND IN THE COMMUNITY.
FIRE PREVENTION WEEK WILL HOST ITS FINAL EVENT AT FIRE STATION 17.
THE LAST DAY IS OCT. 15.

I’M SYDNEY STAPLES, AND COMING UP NEXT, I’LL RUNDOWN YOUR WEDNESDAY MORNING FORECAST FOR ANOTHER NICE FALL DAY IN CENTRAL NEW YORK. MY WEATHERCAST IS UP NEXT.
TIME TO CHECK YOUR WEATHER FOR TODAY.
SYDNEY STAPLES IS IN STUDIO WITH A LOOK AT YOUR FULL WEATHER FORECAST.
AS MUCH AS I LOVE THIS SUIT JACKET, BECAUSE LET ME TELL YOU, IT’S PRETTY CUTE. I DO MISS BEING IN MY COMFY SWEATSHIRT, BUT IT’S NOT SUPPOSED TO BE THAT COLD TODAY. AS YOU GUYS CAN SEE BEHIND ME, WE’RE LOOKING AT A TEMPERATURE, HIGH TEMPERATURE TODAY OF 70 DEGREES AND A LOW OF ABOUT 59. NOW ON THE AVERAGE AROUND THE REGION. AND TYPICALLY AT THIS TIME OF YEAR FOR HERE IN SYRACUSE, WE’RE LOOKING AT 60 TO 44. SO IT’S MUCH WARMER THAN IT TYPICALLY IS. HOWEVER, WE’RE NOT NEARLY AS HOT AS WHAT THE RECORD HIGH ON TODAY IN PAST YEARS HAVE BEEN, LET ALONE TODAY’S RECORD LOW. SO I WILL SAY I’M GRATEFUL THAT IT’S 70 DEGREES VERSUS JUST BEING AS LOW AS WHAT COULD HAVE BEEN 28. FURTHERMORE, FOR THE REST OF TODAY, AND AS I GUYS WAS TALKING TO YOU GUYS ABOUT EARLIER, WE’RE LOOKING AT 59 DEGREES RIGHT NOW. I WAS JUST OUTSIDE. IT WAS BEAUTIFUL WEATHER. I MEAN, NOT REALLY MUCH OF A CLOUD IN THE SKY, BUT WE WILL SEE SOME LATER. ON TOP OF THAT, IT FEELS ABOUT 55, 60 ISH. IT SHOULD GET UP TO 70, BUT YOU’RE GOING TO SEE IT GET A LITTLE BIT COLDER LATER ON TONIGHT. FURTHERMORE, FOR THE REGION, WE GOT ROCHESTER BEATING US OUT BY TWO DEGREES. I MEAN, PRETTY SOLID AND STANDARD ACROSS THE BOARD. AGAIN, I’M GOING TO BE THANKFUL THAT WE’RE IN THE HIGH SEVENTIES OR LOW SEVENTIES, RATHER, RIGHT NOW. NEXT, WE ALSO HAVE THE HOURLY FORECAST. AND RIGHT HERE YOU’RE GOING TO BE SEEING IT WARM THROUGHOUT THE REST OF TODAY. IT’S GOING TO DIP INTO A LITTLE BIT COLDER, PROBABLY TOWARDS THE FIFTIES, AROUND LIKE MAYBE 10 TO 12. AND YOU’RE GOING TO EXPECT SOME WIND IN THE MIDDLE OF THE NIGHT, LET’S SAY THREE OR FIVE IN THE MORNING. BUT NOW, GOING INTO THE NEXT FIVE DAYS, YOU GUYS ARE IN LUCK WITH PARENTS WEEKEND. IT’S SUPPOSED TO BE BEAUTIFUL FROM FRIDAY TO SUNDAY, BUT THEN EXPECT SOME RAIN COMING IN MONDAY TO TUESDAY. GRAB YOUR UMBRELLAS. I TYPICALLY FORGET MINE. I MEAN, I’M GRATEFUL THAT THE WEATHER IS LIKE THIS, BUT I’M GOING TO BE HOLDING ON TO THIS WARMTH AS LONG AS I CAN. I’M NOT READY FOR THIS NOW. MORE SHOW COMING UP NEXT, WE GOT SAMMY ST. JEAN WITH SPORTS AND MICHAEL VILLEGAS. STAY TUNED.
THAKS SYDNEY. COMING UP IN SPORTS WE TAKE A LOOK AT AN SU VOLLEYBALL RECORD THAT WAS FINALLY SHATTERED, A NEAR UPSET AGAINST UVA FOR WOMENS SOCCER AND A PREVIEW OF THE N-C STATE SYRACUSE BATTLE ON SATURDAY.
GOOD MORNING I’M SAMMY ST. JEAN WITH YOUR ORANGE SPORTS UPDATE HERE ON MORNINGS ON THE HILL.
THIS PAST WEEKEND HISTORY WAS MADE WHEN NEWHOUSE GRADUATE STUDENT POLINA SHEMANOVA BROKE THE ALL TIME KILLS RECORD.
THE RECORD WAS 1698 SET BACK IN 1997 BUT THE 6FT OUTSIDE HITTER NOW HOLDS THE RECORD WITH 1701 KILLS AND COUNTING. ANOTHER HUGE CONGRATS TO HER FOR HER HUGE ACCOMPLISHMENT, A CLASSMATE KILLING IT ON AND OFF THE COURT.
OVER ON THE PITCH IN VIRGINIA THIS PAST WEEKEND SYRACUSE WOMENS SOCCER MADE ANOTHER STATEMENT.
AFTER A SERIES OF CLOSE LOSSES AGAINST ACC TEAMS THE WOMEN TOOK ON THE #2 RANKED UVA CAVALIERS AND FOUND A WAY TO GIVE THEM A SERIOUS FIGHT. THEY STARTED ON TOP WITH A 2ND MINUTE OWN GOAL PUT IN THE NET BY AN ATTEMPTED VIRGINIA CLEARANCE. IT WOULD BE TWO CONSECUTIVE GOALS FOR UVA AND IT SEEMED LIKE THE WIN WAS THEIRS, UNTIL KOBY COMMANDANT PUT THE BALL IN THE BACK OF THE NET WITH LESS THAN TWO MINUTES REMAINING FOR THE EQUALIZER.
FOLLOWING THE TIE THEY RETURN TO S-U SOCCER STADIUM AFTER THREE STRAIGHT ROAD GAMES THIS FRIDAY AT 7 P-M AGAINST CLEMSON.
SPORTS REPORTER MICHAEL VILLEGAS IS LIVE IN STUDIO THIS MORNING WITH AN EXCITING FOOTBALL MATCHUP THIS WEEKEND .MICHAEL.
THANKS SAMMY.SU FOOTBALL IS FINALLY BACK. THE ORANGE HAD A MUCH NEEDED BYE WEEK TO REST AND RECOVER FROM ANY BUMPS AND BRUISES THAT MAY HAVE BEEN BOTHERING THEM FROM PREVIOUS GAMES AND THIS BREAK COULDN’T HAVE COME AT A BETTER TIME AS THEY PREPARE TO HOST ACC FOE AND FIFTEENTH RANKED NORTH CAROLINA STATE THIS SATURDAY. N-C STATE IS COMING OFF A BIG WIN VERSUS FLORIDA STATE THIS PAST WEEKEND. THE WOLFPACK FELL BEHIND TO THE SEMINOLES QUICKLY.ONLY SCORING THREE POINTS IN THE FIRST HALF BUT THEY WERE ABLE TO RALLY AND SCORED SIXTEEN POINTS IN THE SECOND HALF IN A COMEBACK WIN WITH A FINAL SCORE OF 19 TO 17.
N-C STATE DIDN’T COME OUT UNSCATHED THOUGH.THE PACK WERE HIT WITH SOME INJURIES BUT THE BIGGEST BLOW CAME WHEN STARTING QUARTERBACK DEVIN LEARY SUFFERED A SHOULDER INJURY DURING THE THIRD QUARTER WHICH GAVE BACKUP JACK CHAMBERS THE OPPORTUNITY TO LEAD THE COMEBACK WIN.
NORTH CAROLINA STATE HEAD COACH.DAVE DOEREN.SAID OF HIS STARTING QUARTERBACK. “DEVIN’S SUPER TOUGH AND HE WILL GRIND. THERE ISN’T A TIMELINE. IT COULD BE THIS WEEK, IT COULD BE SIX WEEKS. IT’S REALLY GOING TO COME DOWN TO HOW HE RECOVERS. WE’RE EXCITED THE NEWS WAS WHAT IT WAS. WE’RE EXCITED HIS SEASON ISN’T OVER AND HE DOESN’T NEED SURGERY.”
LEARY MAY NOT NEED SURGERY BUT HIS STATUS FOR THIS WEEKEND’S GAME IS IN QUESTION. THE TWO TOP TWENTY RANKED TEAMS ARE DRAWING THE CROWD AS OVER FORTY-THOUSAND TICKETS HAVE BEEN SOLD.WHICH IS THE MOST SO FAR THIS SEASON. THE GAME IS THIS SATURDAY AT THREE-THIRTY IN THE JMA WIRELESS DOME.SO BE SURE TO PACK THE LOUD HOUSE. SAMMY BACK TO YOU.
