The Dogs of Alvernia: Liz and Di Loyack

By Marisa Lombardo (Assistant SID)

Reading, Pa. (January 27, 2021.) -  Let’s admit it, this past year hasn’t been all that great. It’s been way too long since we last covered a game, and we miss it as much as you all do! But, one positive thing to come out of this time is that we have had the chance to spend more time with our dogs! So while we do miss shining the spotlight on our student-athletes, we are going to take some time over Winter Break to shine the spotlight on the good boys and girls who are the furry friends of Alvernia Athletics. 

Next up in our special Dogs of Alvernia series are Liz and Di Loyack!

Liz and Di are the Welsh Corgis of President John Loyack!
