Joel Moss received the award for Excellence in Information Technology & Systems (naturally, this is why we call him BIG MAN).
Erin received the Salutatorian Award. Erin, and her perfect GPA, was in the running for the coveted valedictorian spot. No worries. She is #1 in her class in our book, and it was great to see her around campus this past week (Erin graduated a semester early!).
While we are on the subject of braggin' on our team members, I was honored (pun intended) to be in the Chapel on Friday morning for the Honors Program Medal Ceremony. There were only 24 graduating seniors receiving medals; a pretty elite group of academic stalwarts. Of those 24, only 3 were student-athletes. Of those 3 student-athletes, 2 were from track and field (Kelley Gould and Chris Vanzetta).
A big part of this blog is about running results, times and splits. These are the types of academic splits that make an old coach beam with pride. To them, and all of our very special Class of 2013, I say what I always say: NICELY DONE.
