Throughout the day, Elon Athletics will celebrate its student-athletes and their accomplishments via the department and program social media channels as it recognizes and remembers many of the outstanding achievements of the 2019-20 academic year.

The day will start with a message from Director of Athletics Dave Blank on Elon’s social media channels, with Blank’s message followed throughout the day by the university’s 17 athletic programs as they honor student-athletes and remember highlights from their seasons. Fans are encouraged to stay tuned throughout the day on Twitter (@ElonPhoenix) and Facebook (Elon Phoenix) with updates throughout the day being posted to elonphoenix.com.

Because athletic competitions were canceled for the remainder of the year on March 13 due to the COVID-19 pandemic, the three department-wide awards – the Stein H. Basnight Outstanding Athlete of the Year, Browne Memorial Sportsmanship and A.L. Hooke Scholar-Athletes honors – will not be awarded for 2019-20.
