Hi Athlete Ally!

This Wednesday (April 3) we are hosting a pizza party at 7pm in the LGBT Center! The theme is “Bring a Teammate,” so come with a friend, ready to eat and socialize.

Winter sports have finished, and the spring season is in full swing!

Men's Swim and Dive placed 9th at the NCAA championships! Rep Emmett Adams was 8th in the nation for 100 breast going 54.75. Rep Jack Nussbaum went 2:05.52 in the 200 breast. Congrats to them both on their season!
