    A staple in the New York region and an emerging program on the national stage, the Manhattanville College Athletic Department continues to bolster its reputation as a program on the rise in all areas: athletic achievement, academic success and overall participation. More than 300 Valiant student-athletes (nearly 20 percent of the student body) took part in intercollegiate athletics during the 2009-10 school year showcasing the continued and rapid growth of athletics at Manhattanville. Following the successful integration of the men’s and women’s indoor and outdoor track teams in 2008-09, the program has expanded to 21 intercollegiate teams – including seven new teams that have been established or re-established since 2007 alone. And teams at Manhattanville do not just compete, they win. Seven different programs earned conference regular-season or tournament championships in 2009-10 – a total bettered by only 13 Division III schools – and two Valiant teams (baseball and men’s golf) appeared in the NCAA Tournament. Fifteen of 21 Valiant teams earned berths in their respective conference championships last year, including confer- ence championships for the baseball, men’s golf and men’s hockey pro- grams. Three Manhattanville teams (men’s hockey, women’s hockey and women’s soccer) also received national rankings over the course of the year, the most in a single school year since 2004-05. On an individual level, many Valiant student-athletes were honored in 2009-10 as well. A program-record four Valiants – A.J. Mikkelsen and Mickey Lang (men’s hockey), Katie Little (women’s hockey) and Dan Fiorito (baseball) received All-American accolades, while an incredible six players were named conference Player of the Year.

    A staple in the New York region and an emerging program on the national stage, the Manhattanville College Athletic Department continues to bolster its reputation as a program on the rise in all areas: athletic achievement, academic success and overall participation. A program-record 305 Valiant student-athletes (nearly 20 percent of the student body) took part in intercollegiate athletics during the 2008- 09 season, showcasing the continued and rapid growth of athletics at Manhattanville. Following the successful integration of the men’s and women’s indoor and outdoor track teams last season, the program has expanded to a record 21 intercollegiate teams – including seven new teams established in the last two years alone. And teams at Manhattanville do not just compete, they win. Three Valiant squads (men’s basketball, baseball and men’s tennis) earned Freedom Conference regular-season championships in 2008-09 and both the men’s and women’s hockey teams spent much of the year with national rankings. Sixteen of 21 Valiant teams earned berths in their respective conference tournaments last year, including four conference championship game appearances. In all, Manhattanville teams posted an impressive .548 winning percentage (184-151-6) last season, with two Valiants teams also setting new program records for wins in a single season. On an individual level, many Valiant student-athletes were honored in 2008-09 as well. Men’s hockey forward Chris Trafford and women’s hockey center Holly Nonis became the 15th and 16th Valiants to earn All-American honors following the season, while the pair were two of four players to be named conference Player of the Year.

  • 2016-17 AIC Athletics Annual Review
    #AICOMMITTED 2016-17 ANNUAL REVIEW #AICOMMITTED Dear Friends of AIC Athletics, 2016-17 has been a memorable year for the AIC athletic department. We have won regular season titles, Bowl games and NCAA regional champion- ships; have had NCAA national qualifiers; and made an Elite Eight appearance. In addition, a few of our coaches have been recognized regionally for their success. Individually, our student-athletes have won sport excellence awards, have been named All-Americans and Academic All-Americans, in addition to sever- al All-Region and All-Conference selections. This past September, 48 percent of our returning student-athletes received t-shirts as part of our 3.0 Club, which recognizes student-athletes with above a 3.0 grade-point average. AIC landed 236 student-athletes on the Northeast-10 Fall Commissioner’s Honor Roll, 14 of whom record- ed a perfect 4.0 GPA. 55 percent of our student-athletes received a Fall 2017 semester GPA of 3.0 or higher and 52 percent of our student-athletes have a cumulative GPA of 3.0 or higher. We have strengthened our partnership with Team Impact, a 501(c)(3) non-profit organization chartered to improve the quality of life for children facing life-threatening illnesses. Eight of our athletic programs are currently paired with Team-Impact children and we have one additional pending match. This places AIC in the top 10 schools nationally with regards to matches. We have significantly enhanced our community outreach initiatives, including feeding the homeless, partic- ipating in the City of Springfield Puerto Rican Day Parade, providing breakfast for underprivileged children, donating over 400 pounds of food to a local soup kitchen, holding a candlelight vigil in support of mental health awareness, planting flags around campus to remember those who perished on 9/11, hosting chil- dren from the Springfield Public Day School, hosting a tackle hunger tournament, an Autism Awareness Clinic…and the list goes on.
