Radford Athletics is poised to make the next 10 years the most productive and exciting period in Highlander sports history. The Athletic Department’s strategic plan includes improving the student-athlete experience through hard work, integrity, passion, focus and accountability. Campaign efforts will provide financial support to help match our goals and will provide student-athletes with the proper resources to compete at the highest level.
