Vuono wins academic honor -- again!

For the second year in a row, Mark Vuono has won Academic All-District honors. The award honors someone who combines superior academic success with athletic success and Vuono certainly has done that. The photo above is of Vuono receiving his baccalaureate award from President Murray last Friday; he had the highest GPA among all graduating accounting majors. As you can read in the GoredFoxes.com press release here, Vuono was my "never say no" guy ... always ready to run a strong relay leg, or anything else, with his laid back, breezy style. And he wasn't just a good guy; he was fast, too! In short, a great citizen of our program. We are confident that Vuono will continue both successful paths after graduation -- he's already got a job lined up with KPMG in his native Rhode Island, and he and Ricky Willi are signed up for the Chicago Marathon in October. Nicely done, Vuono!
