Welcome to the Sport Management Newsletter! This month’s newsletter highlights the continued growth and national momentum of the Sport Management program, showcasing how students and alumni are making an impact both on campus and across the industry. From moments on the court to hands-on experiences in the classroom, our students and alumni continue to make their mark.
This issue also features standout students, dedicated organizations, and accomplished alumni, along with insights from industry leaders who continue to inspire the next generation. From internships and leadership roles to guest speakers and professional development opportunities, the momentum continues to build both on campus and beyond.
We celebrate High Point University’s unforgettable March Madness run and the student-first experience that brought Panthers to Portland and united campus in support. From student broadcasters gaining national attention to firsthand industry exposure, these moments showcased the power of sport, storytelling, and community on a national stage. It was a defining stretch that created lasting memories and elevated the program’s presence nationwide.
We hope you enjoy reading and feel inspired by the stories, experiences, and achievements shared throughout this month’s newsletter, as they reflect the passion, drive, and growth within our Sport Management community.
