Here at Washburn we have something called SAAC. It stands for the student athletic advisory committee. Instead of athletes just going to practice and their own games, SAAC encourages athletes to attend other sporting events.
Each athletic team competes in something called the Washburn Cup. It is based on grade point average, attendance to other sporting events, community service, and as well as many other fun opportunities! The more people involved in the Washburn Cup and it's activities, the greater the support and care for our other athletic teams here at Washburn!
Last year the softball team won, and we were recognized at Yell Like Hell. Hopefully we can keep working towards another Washburn Cup win this year!

This is a really cool program, I didn't know that Washburn did this.
