mixed start with a record of 3-6. The Tiger football team is
rolling again with a 2-0 record and a No. 4 ranking in the nation.

introduction of the Class of 2002 in the Athletics Hall of Honor.
The Tiger field hockey team is currently ranked 14th nationally in
NCAA Division III with a record of 7-0 and leads the NCAC as
