The FAMU Department of Athletics has unveiled "The Mystique," a web-based miniseries of eight short videos about the history of FAMU athletics. It is exclusively available at www.FAMUAthletics.com.

The series began on Monday. A new video will be released each Monday in June and July.

Pulling together interviews, video footages, photos and first-person accounts from some of those involved in these historic times, the videos will bring a unique perspective to the history of the special athletes, coaches and administrators of FAMU's athletics history. The videos range anywhere from three to 10 minutes, depending on the availability of resources.

FAMU Director of Athletics Derek Horne felt it was mandatory that the department rekindles the FAMU spirit by celebrating those who have made us proud.

"I think the Mystique series will give us the opportunity to expose our rich tradition to the younger generation to see why we are so proud of FAMU athletics," he said.

Because of the rich heritage of FAMU athletics, it is virtually impossible to capture all of the history in eight short videos. The initial release of "The Mystique" is designed to provide a snapshot of some of the greatest athletes and moments in FAMU history.

The subjects of the miniseries include: the Frazier/Galimore Express (1956), Andre "The Hawk" Dawson, the 1984 Women's Track All-American, Althea Gibson, The Gulf Coast Offence, NCAA 3-pt. Champion Terrence Woods, FAMU's historic 2004 volleyball team, and "The Bullet" Bob Hayes.
