The North Eastern Athletic Conference (NEAC) has named Morrisville State College the recipient of the conference’s elite Presidents’ Cup for the 2015-16 athletic year, highlighting the institution’s commitment to athletics, academics, community service and sportsmanship.
Recently featured in the NCAA Championship Magazine for its distinction, the NEAC established a new approach to awarding its Presidents’ Cup in 2014, in an effort to reflect the core values of the NCAA Division III.
“I can’t imagine a better way to validate the great work happening all across the Morrisville State campus, than being named the recipient of the North Eastern Athletic Conference Presidents’ Cup,” stated Athletic Director Greg Carroll.
“It’s a tribute to the athletic department staff; our faculty who work hand in hand with our athletes to help them balance their lives; our fans who support our expectations for appropriate, spirited behavior; and most of all our student-athletes who make it all happen on the fields, in the community, and across campus.”
“What a great honor for our student-athletes and everyone at Morrisville State College who supports them,” said MSC President David Rogers. “This is exactly the recognition that makes us proud of what we do: preparing young people to succeed not just in practices, meets, matches and games, but in classrooms, communities and life.”
