Mean Green Nation,

I hope you are having a great summer! We are busy making plans for the fall semester and for our various fall sports seasons. Last year was another tremendous year for the Mean Green. Momentum is at an all-time high, and we are positioned to remain strong as we head into 2020-21.

I am so proud of our coaches, support staff, and student-athletes who continue to raise the bar of excellence as we deliver on our mission of Building Champions and Preparing Leaders. Last year we saw a number of outstanding successes within the fields and courts of competition, in the classroom, and in the community:

Recorded an overall winning record for the 3^rd straight year
Claimed Conference USA Championships in men’s basketball and women’s soccer
Recorded highest ever GPA

We are also excited about the continued progress in building our key athletic facilities that allow us to further develop our student-athletes physically, academically, and socially. We proudly unveiled our new Lovelace & McNatt Families Practice Facility and have broken ground on our new on-campus golf practice facility.

We recently completed working with architects to determine programming needs and basic design for an expanded Athletic Center. As outlined in the Light the Tower Facility Master Plan, we have a critical need to expand this facility in order to better serve our student-athletes in the areas of sports medicine, strength and conditioning, and academic support. While the timing of the athletic center renovation and expansion is fluid due to concerns with the current economic climate, it remains an important part of our plans to continue to build on our momentum.

Our Mean Green momentum is real and we want to thank you for the important part you play in our trajectory as an institution. Your financial support and attendance at games are vital to our continued success. You only have a few days to renew your season football tickets. It is very possible that we will not have single game or game day sales for games due to attendance restrictions. Renew your football season tickets by clicking HERE!

Finally, if you have not had an opportunity to join the Mean Green Scholarship Fund, please visit MeanGreenScholarshipFund.com today. For as little as $25, you can become a member and support the scholarship and academic endeavors of our 400 student-athletes.

On behalf of our student-athletes, coaches, and staff, thank you for helping us Build Champions and Prepare Leaders.

North Texas, We Love!

Wren Baker
Vice President and Director of Athletics
