Welcome Athletics Alumni
The Valdosta State University Athletic Department appreciates the efforts our student-athletes put forth to help build a successful program. We would like to do our part to recognize and welcome former student-athletes to be a part of our program today in order to build and maintain a relationship with all VSU Athletic Alumni.
Athletics Alumni Events
This past season, Athletic Alumni Relations Coordinator Valerie Haven organized our second Athletic Alumni reunion during the 2009 Blazer football season. It was the "Kick-Off" event, held in conjunction with the Valdosta State football game against Newberry. All Blazer Athletic Alumni were invited to a reunion and reception in the American Legion preceding the football game.
This event also recognized members of the 1994 Blazer Football team as they paved the way for Valdosta Football tradition by being the first VSU Football team to make the NCAA playoffs.
Sport Specific Events
In addition to the large reunions, there have also been several sport specific alumni events. The Blazer baseball and volleyball teams each held alumni games during Homecoming festivities.
VSU Teams with Career Athletes
Valdosta State teamed up with a company called Career Athletes in an effort to better prepare out student-athletes for the future. We would like to let the alumni know some of the steps we've taken to give our student-athletes a leg up after college.
Thank You
Former Valdosta State athletes have helped build the VSU athletic program into one of the strongest and most respected collegiate athletic programs in the country. We want you to know you're still part of the team.
In order to allow us to keep further in touch with our Athletic Alumni, we ask that you please take a moment to fill out the VSU Athletic
