Pathways to Excellence

Sure, plenty of them are told on the playing field. After all, Indiana University Athletics has a long-standing tradition of success, one complete with 25 national team titles, 179 Big Ten team championships, and dynasties in multiple sports.
But there’s more to the nearly 700 student-athletes who represent Indiana University in intercollegiate athletics each year than their successes in their respective sports. In fact, there’s much more. In our new “Pathways to Excellence” series, we will highlight the remarkable things our students are doing, or obstacles they are overcoming, as IU student-athletes. We’ll also shine a light on how IU’s ground-breaking Excellence Academy program and Excellence Academy facility are supporting, encouraging, and developing these students, who are adding to IU Athletics’ foundation of excellence.
