I was really optimistic in the beginning, but what a overall disappointment for players and fans accross the board. Thanks to those who put in their effort....sometimes changes are just need accross the board.

Track and Field 3 coaches in last 3 hrs,  Womens basketball JD Gravina hired 13 yrs ago Head Coach Quincy,  24-25 17-17, 25-26 23-4.  Womens soccer hired Ross Henderson 2025, 2025 1-17-1.  Softball Alisa Goler hired June 23, 2020 Asst Penn St,  2024 16-34, 2025 11-37.  Womens tennis Luke Ogren hired July 11, 2023, 23-24 2-16, 24-25 12-9.  Volleyball Mari Silva hired  Feb 6, 2026 Asst Towson.  Replaced Dale Starr Head Coach Robert Morris hired Feb 6, 2022, 2023 9-21, 2024 17-13, 2025 7-24.  All in all alot of turnover and losing.  Can we get a good Div 2 AD?

Some reason you didn't list Boudreau's record of 21-12 in his first season as head coach 23-24?

Don't want to get too negative about our athletic dept but geez, know we can do better.  Gil Peterson was AD when I was a student for 25 years.  He hired Bruce Craddock a really good hire, he was Head Coach at NE Missouri and won there.  Have a good feeling about next year in football, hope we do well.

Present state of athletics probably deserves a thread in the “Leatherneck athletics” section of this forum
