support of the mission of the Department of Athletics the Athletics

We have a number of coaches and administrators available for your
next non-profit meeting, event or fundraiser. Speakers are
available to discuss not only specific intercollegiate athletic
programs, but also the behind-the-scenes aspects of Division I
