When Ara would walk out on the balcony of the old field house to address the students at a pep rally, you felt that he was stepping down from the right hand of God. He had an incomparable presence. His life is a blueprint of achievement on and off the field.

Had the same experience when Ara entered Stephan Center rallies. No matter the bedlam we were creating .... One raised eyebrow and Stephan Center went utterly silent. I still believe Ara can stop the rain.
