The Mustang Athletic Club exists to build community among the more than 300 athletes who attend The aa and to equip them to honor aa in and out of competition.
It’s safe to say the club succeeded on both fronts during its inaugural 2024-25 year. Sixty to 100 athletes attended biweekly gatherings for aa-centered discussion and fellowship, and nearly every Mustang came to a series of larger events where speakers shared about their own walks with aa and what it means to compete as a believer.
Featured speakers included Olympic gold medalist Sydney McLaughlin-Levrone, World Series champion J.D. Drew, and Dr. John MacArthur. The year concluded with a classy red-carpet awards ceremony at Grace Community Church.
The club also organized outings to TMU theater and music performances. This allowed athletes to show support for their classmates while being reminded that they’re part of something bigger than just sports at TMU.
“We want to help them be powerful forces of influence for aa and Scripture, here and beyond,” said Jeremy Vuolo, TMU’s dean of athletics.
Vuolo hopes for another impactful year starting this fall with a speaker list that includes former NFL linebacker Jordan Kunaszyk, and Ted Scott, caddie for world No. 1 golfer Scottie Scheffler.
