ALBANY – The College of Saint Rose was recently honored with the David R. Brunk Award for Institution Sportsmanship by the Northeast-10 Conference and the conference’s Senior Woman Administrator (SWA) council. The award was presented at the conference’s end of the year awards banquet in Burlington, VT.
The David R. Brunk Award honors the institution that best demonstrates sportsmanship throughout their athletics programs during the course of the academic year.
Throughout the 2009-2010 academic year; the NE-10 awarded one team from each of its 23 championship sports with the Team Sportsmanship Award at the end of each season's championship segment. The Team Sportsmanship Award is presented to the team that best exemplifies the spirit of sportsmanship and generally conducts themselves with a high degree of integrity, character and class.
Saint Rose received the Team Sportsmanship Award in the sports of men's cross country, men's indoor track & field, women's indoor track & field, men's outdoor track & field and women's outdoor track & field.
Last year, Assumption College was selected as the award recipient. Previous winners include Stonehill College (2008) and Saint Anselm College (2007).
