Greetings from Dragon Athletics!
As the end of the year is fast approaching, we are taking the time to reflect on the past year. I feel it is important to celebrate the successes, embrace the challenges and reaffirm what athletics is trying to accomplish for our student-athletes, our university and our regional community. I can tell you that a book wouldn’t do justice to the accomplishments of the past year.
This short video highlights the true Dragon Pride that has been displayed in competition, in the classroom and in our community.
I am proud to share with you that at the conclusion of the spring sports season the Dragons are unofficially ranked 51st out of 292 NCAA Division II athletic departments in the Learfield Sports Directors’ Cup Standing.
Our department continues to excel academically. We are currently on track to achieve a cumulative grade point average above 3.0 for the ‘08-‘09 year. Amazingly more than a third of Dragon student-athletes were named to the MSUM dean’s list.
It is a Great Day to be a Dragon!
Doug Peters
Athletic Director
