MEDIA, Pa. — Penn State Brandywine Athletics held its annual awards banquet on May 22 in the Student Union. The 2023-24 academic year concluded Brandywine’s membership in the Penn State University Athletic Conference (PSUAC), as the athletic program transitions to NCAA Division III and the United East Conference this fall.

“It’s been another outstanding year for Brandywine Athletics, highlighted by three PSUAC Championships — in men’s soccer, women’s cross country and softball — a whole list of academic honors, career milestones and our second consecutive softball USCAA National Championship win,” said Bobbi Caprice, director of athletics.

“We are so fortunate to be surrounded by a campus community that supports our department and our student-athletes. Brandywine Athletics would not be as successful without our entire campus community.”

More than 80 student-athletes received awards honoring their sportsmanship, grade point average, points scored and more.
