During Homecoming week at Illinois Wesleyan University, a special extended episode of "Titan Table Talk" was released. Host Tommy opened the episode with an interview featuring Head Football Coach Norm Eash. They discussed the team's recent shutout victory over the Carthage Firebirds, marking their 2-0 standing in CCIW play.

Following Coach Eash's segment, two players from the victorious game joined the conversation: Junior running back Danny Kent and Senior defensive back Frank Roti. Both athletes reflected on their performances during Saturday's game and shared memorable moments from their time as Titans.

Head Women's Volleyball Coach Kim Nelson-Brown also made an appearance. She recounted the excitement surrounding a surprise visit from the men's soccer team during a game against Elmhurst and previewed challenging upcoming matches against North Park and Millikin.

The episode concluded with Associate Athletic Director Tony Bankston, who shared insights about his role in starting the women's soccer team at Illinois Wesleyan University 30 years ago. He recalled being hired by Denny Bridges to coach both men's and women's programs at just 24 years old, despite having no prior coaching experience.

Listeners can access "Titan Table Talk" weekly through iwusports.com, SoundCloud, and YouTube.
