DEAR
RAMS
FANS,
I hope these summer months are
treating you and your families
well. While our department
already started preparing for the
2016-17 academic year, this time
gives us an opportunity to reflect
on another successful season in
the classroom, on the field and in
the community.
The summer also allows time for
us to appreciate the tremendous
support we receive at VCU. Your
support allows for seasons filled
with unforgettable moments,
such as our nine Atlantic 10
Championships the past two
years and record-breaking suc-
cess by VCU student-athletes in
the classroom.
You will notice the pages of
this edition of The Ram Report
include our list of Ram Athletic
Fund donors. The list is our an-
nual nod to you, the supporter
of VCU student-athletes. More
than ever, you provide our VCU
student-athletes with a platform
from which to excel, and for that,
we thank you.
Another notable feature of this
edition is some of the best pho-
tos from our athletic competitions
in 2015-16. We want to show-
case the year's best moments:
celebrations, tears of joy, incred-
ible athletic feats. You helped to
create all of these moments.
Enjoy the stories and experi-
ences preserved in these pages.
I know you feel like I do, and you
can't wait to make many more
memories in 2016-17.
Go Rams,
Ed McLaughlin
Director of Athletics
