NASHVILLE, Tenn. (WTVF) — The MTSU and WKU rivalry returns as Middle Tennessee State University and Western Kentucky University compete during the annual fall blood drive!
It's a friendly competition to see which campus can rally the most donations.
Last year was a tight competition where MTSU collected 451 units, but was nipped by 3 units as WKU collected 454. — the university's closest blood drive in history.
The drive is happening at the Campus Recreation Center gymnasium from 11 a.m. to 6 p.m. Monday to Wednesday!
They say anyone can come to donate!

My friend and colleague Carrie Sharp had a lot of fun last week, on an adventure to a country more than three thousand miles away! She’s back now – sharing her Adventures in Iceland through stories, and incredible images of this remarkably beautiful and unique island nation (kudos to Chief Photographer Catherine Steward)! But did you know Nashville has something very important in common with Iceland? Tourism! Here, Carrie explains how a volcanic eruption decades ago helped save the country’s economy from collapse!
