MOORHEAD, Minn. — The National Association of Collegiate Marketing Administrators (NACMA) has honored the MSUM GO! TEAM with nine ‘Best of’ Awards for 2022-23, pushing their total to 36 national awards since 2014.  These awards placed MSUM as one of three finalists for NACMA Marketing Team of the Year sponsored by Presto Sports.

“We are extremely proud of our staff and the GO! TEAM students who work incredibly hard to make MSUM National Champions in the things we do behind the scenes,” said MSUM athletics director Chad Markuson.  “The GO! TEAM are the storytellers of our student-athletes, coaches, and staff and they continue to make a major impact on the student-athlete experience here at MSUM.”

Leading the GO! TEAM is assistant athletics director Jon Wepking who said, “This is an unreal honor from NACMA and an incredible testament to the GO! TEAM and their ability to attack challenges head-on with creative innovations and high-level execution. Have to thank the MSUM Foundation, Amanda Citrowski and the MSUM Box Office team, First Year Programs, Slate for Teams, Nolan Schmidt, Doug Peters, Chris Needam and Dragon Football, Dustin Eichten, Alex Nelson, and of course our amazing student-athletes, sponsors, and supporters for making this possible. Of course a big thanks to the whole GO! TEAM who share every success because without every little thing they do, we would not be able to push these ideas to this level.”

Based upon points awarded for total number and rank of ‘Best Of’ Awards, finalists will be selected for Marketing Team of the Year presented by Presto Sports.  In previous years, the Marketing Team of the Year was open to all institutions.  This year, the award was broken similarly to the awards into three groups.
