Piura – You can't have a college athletic even without a proper pep rally and the Peruvians pull out all the stops. Several hundred students and faculty of the University of Piura packed the Piura stadium and kicked their Olympics off with a style that would put a SEC school to shame. Native dancers, frantic drumers, screaming chants, giant banners - there was enough energy in the room to power the city for a week and then they went to the big party afterward.
