On behalf of IUPUI Department of Athletics and all of our student-athletes, thank you for your continued support of the Jaguars Athletics Club. It is because of your loyalty and dedication that we are able to develop and maintain a proud tradition of Division One NCAA athletics. Each year we strive to advance that tradition by excelling on the playing field, in the classroom, and in the community.
We have seen many positive changes to the landscape of IUPUI athletics. Our athletic facilities continue to improve - this season new chair back seats were installed in the gymnasium for volleyball and basketball events. On the playing field, we hosted the Summit League’s men’s soccer championships in November and the men’s basketball team was selected as the pre-season conference favorite by several publications. Most importantly, 100 student-athletes represented IUPUI last year with Academic All-Conference honors.
As we prepare for upcoming opportunities, please know that we can only take advantage of those moments with your continued and increased support. The most important element to a successful athletics program is scholarship funding and we must raise those dollars to support over 200 Jaguar student-athletes each year. To continue to compete for Summit League Championships and NCAA tournament play, we must significantly increase our annual giving to the Jaguars Athletics Club.
I encourage you to learn more about why private support is so important for our program by reading about the Jaguars Athletics Club on our website. You may download a renewal form or call our Associate Athletics Director for External Affairs, John Rasmussen, at (317) 274-5453 for more information.
Again, thank you for your continued support of IUPUI and Jaguars Athletics.
Gratefully,
Michael R. Moore
Director of Athletics
