Almost every single VSU swim today ended in a time drop - each swimmer achieving at least 1 personal best.    The Medley Relay got the ball rolling in the first event of the day - cutting 4 seconds off their season best and beating out a powerful Cedar Falls team for 3rd place.

Early in the 2007 football season, Joe Hadachek gestured to the team on other side of the field at the end one of his very first games as the Union head coach. “They have a winning football tradition,” he said that night. “Here at Union, we are trying to start one.” Now, Union is preparing for the 2018 playoff season, its 11th consecutive post-season appearance.
