Ole Miss Rebel Football Players attended Chance's funeral as a team and offered their condolences to his parents, one by one.
Chance continues to serve as an inspiration to the team and the coaching staff. At practice on August 4th--the same day of Chance's funeral--Coach Freeze told reporters assembled how Chance fought hard every single day until the end, and how he hopes his players will recognize the importance of fighting hard through all obstacles--as Chance did. |

"Fins Up!"
Chance throwing up the Landshark.
"Fins Up!" is the battle cry of the Ole Miss Rebel Defense, the fierce football group known as the Landsharks. The Landshark symbol was first used by former Rebel player, Tony Fein. Sadly, Fein has since passed away, but the spirit with which he conducted himself is still alive and well, both on the football field and in the hearts of Rebels everywhere.
Chance Tetrick, pictured at left, embodied the tough, "Fins Up!" mentality, as he fought the fierce battle against leukemia. Chance was a die-hard Rebel fan who REMAINS an example of perseverance, faith, and strength.
