Thank you for your support of Brown Athletics!

In this publication, we have highlighted the many achievements and accolades earned by our student-athletes throughout the past year. Their commitment to Brown University – in the classroom, in competition and in the community – provides inspiration to us all.

We are grateful to all the alumni, parents and friends who made these enhancements possible.

President Christina Paxson continues to provide outstanding leadership to the Brown community.

Sincerely,

Jack Hayes Director of Athletics
