Spring 2009

Wal-Mart with out Peer Award winners were: Shelley Marsh (Soccer) and Dusty Loyd (Track).  Nominees must be a senior with exhausted eligibility, must have a cum 3.0 GPA or higher, must have contributed to athletic team, and must have performed community service.  This award is voted on by SAAC.

New officers for 2009-2010 are: President--Kirsten Ford (Women's Tennis), Vice President--Will Hohemier (Cross Country and Track) and Justin Maxson (Baseball).  Thanks to the past officers and all their hard work this year: Shelley Marsh (Soccer), Megan Dennis (Softball) and Justin Wieser (Football).

Spring brings to mind prom season, as SAAC puts on the 3rd Annual Senior Prom for the local senior citizens of Emporia.  Over 100 senior citizens enjoyed an evening with the student-athletes listening to the tunes of the live Tall Grass Big Band.

Continued Make-A-Wish fundraising this semester with Goodie bags and spare change drive helped bring the total given to Make-A-Wish this year to 1,332.71.

Nominees for the NCAA Leadership Conference were Keith Maples (Football), Brett McBride (Baseball) and Kirsten Ford (Tennis); with our participant this year being Brittney Miller (Volleyball/Basketball).  Brittney will attend the conference in Orlando at the end of May.  We look forward to her return with great tools to be a leader here at ESU.

NCAA SAAC Mission

The NCAA has established a Student-Athlete Advisory Committee (SAAC) to address the concerns directly or indirectly related to student athlete welfare. Each team has a minimum of two representatives who will serve as studentathlete leaders for their sport. The primary goal for this committee is to:
• Advocate for student-athlete rights
• Encourage participation in campus organizations
• Share academic, financial, and social information with teammates
• Maintain positive relationships between student-athletes, general student population, and ESU administrators
• Participate in opportunities to enhance leadership skills
• Promote community service
• Promote special events for student-athletes
