Whitman AD Kim Chandler Q&As with the college’s magazine about her six years leading the Blues. Looking back to when she was hired in 2019, Chandler “wanted to be part of an institution where they really valued academic rigor. But in the very same conversation, we could talk about athletic success, we could talk about winning and about competing, and that one didn’t challenge the other.” Points of pride for Whitman include opening James Hayner Field and the Edwards-Moore Clubhouse last season, with Chandler adding: “The fact that we were able to do both of those projects in a single year, much less to have the donors fund that with significant support—to see not only one but two of those come to fruition—is just really amazing” Chandler on her vision for Whitman: “I think for us it’s just continuing to find ways that we can excel to support the young people that are here. We always talk about the fact that they only have four years for the rest of their life to play this game at this level with this kind of camaraderie. And it’s really important that we do all that we can to help get it right.” (link)

The NCAA and national nonprofit Team IMPACT announce a collaboration to foster long-term relationships between collegiate student-athletes and youths to inspire and promote belonging, empowerment and resilience by matching children facing serious illnesses or disabilities with college sports teams at various NCAA championships. NCAA President Charlie Baker shares more with CBS Mornings’ Nate Burleson: “The work that they do for young people who are dealing with debilitating and, in some cases, fatal diseases, to give those kids and their families a team that they can be part of and a set of relationships that, in many cases, long outlast the time somebody spends for their four years in college is really powerful. … The other thing it does, and I’ve talked to a lot of college athletes who've been part of Team IMPACT, is it reminds those kids over and over again of the gifts they’ve been given and how they should appreciate the opportunities that they possess as a result. … When you have a teammate who can’t play and will never play and is dealing with much bigger things than you, it has a pretty powerful impact on the way you think about the skills and opportunities you’ve been given.” (link, link)

The GNAC rolls out its new brand identity with the assistance of SKYE. From the league: “After conducting further research from hundreds of coaches, student-athletes, and athletic administration, the brand narrative was inspired and created by two concepts, which were ‘Unbreakable Bond’ and ‘Unstoppable Force’. In the unbreakable bond phase, the mark features the 'GNAC' initials arching over the map of New England to represent the unity of its members. In the unstoppable force phase, the powerful motion of the mark draws a parallel between transformative horizons and weather patterns associated with New England and the mission of the conference to develop transformative, well-rounded student-athletes, equipping them to be unstoppable in all arenas of their life, spanning athletic, personal success, and professional success.” (link)
