As we close out the busy month of May, one of the biggest highlights was watching over 80 student-athletes take part in commencement on May 17. Earning a degree from Wofford is an incredible achievement and it was awesome to watch them walk across the stage. As the athletic year comes to a close, we can look back on the twelve Southern Conference titles won (volleyball, seven outdoor track, four indoor track), 64 All-Southern Conference honors, six Players of the Year, and a Freshman of the Year. Not to mention, the overall GPA of the athletic department this spring was 3.29.
We are looking forward to building on these accomplishments next year, which is rapidly approaching. We will be releasing all of our fall sports schedules over the next few weeks, with teams on campus for summer school in early June and the first fall camp reporting date in late July.

SOCON GRADUATE SCHOLARS
The Southern Conference announced its ten postgraduate scholarship recipients for the 2025-26 academic year on Wednesday. Wofford's Kerrington Johnson (track and field) and Brandon Maina (football) were among the ten recipients. Johnson, the recipient of the Richard Johnson Graduate Scholarship, garnered 14 All-SoCon honors, nine conference titles individually and two relay titles during her career with the Terriers. Maina, recipient of the Dave Hart Scholarship, was a three-time All-SoCon selection with 19.5 career. In 2025, Maina ranked fourth nationally in sacks per game and earned a spot on the prestigious FCS ADA Academic All-Star Team.
