Supporters of the colleges in the Central Intercollegiate Athletic Association arrived in Baltimore showing off their school and sorority colors. Players showcased their talents on the court, and the fans showcased their undying support for their teams.

Each year, CIAA fans set new heights of pride. This year, fans took center stage by applauding electrifying performances by teams at CFG Bank Arena.

While there was no shortage of the golf shirts and oversize jerseys seen on fans at most sporting events, a lot of supporters displayed their fabulous fashion sense. The “Mister and Miss” from the historically Black colleges and universities were on hand to extend additional pageantry to the games.

If you’re the queen, you wear a tiara and sash. If you’re too cool for school, wear crazy sexy cool! Or represent your school by being on the cheer squad!

The Baltimore Banner thanks its sponsors. Become one.

Here are some of the looks of fans at the CIAA tournament.
