Year one of the Sundance Wicks era brought an exciting glimpse of a promising future for men’s basketball. The team doubled its win total from the previous season, finishing 12-18 with a 6-13 record in the MIAA. Seven road wins by the team were the most for the program in 17 years. Wicks also led the program to its highest scoring average since the 2013-14 season. All of that was accomplished even by playing the one of the most challenging schedules in the nation.

The team graduated just three seniors and will add a handful of incoming freshman to a handful of redshirt freshman who spent this season practicing with the team.

Head Coach Rob Edmisson remained unblemished in the first round of the MIAA Championships as he led the women’s basketball team to the quarterfinals of the conference tournament once again. The season ended there with a loss to top-seeded Fort Hays State. The Griffons ended the year with a 14-16 overall record and an 8-11 mark in MIAA play.

Junior Katrina Roenfeldt put together a fantastic season, breaking the program record for three-point field goals made in a season with 86. Roenfeldt was named first team All-MIAA after leading the conference in three-point field goal percentage, three-point field goals per game and finishing third in the conference, averaging 16.2 points per game. She also led the team with 5.2 rebounds per game.

The indoor track and field program re-wrote the still-fresh record book this winter under first-year head coach Yuriy Litvinski. The Griffons broke nearly every indoor track and field record in the book and did most of it early in the year.

Sophomore Hanna Williams became the first in school history to earn an automatic qualification to the NCAA Division II National Championships. Williams earned her way to nationals in the 400-meter, but unfortunately was not able to compete due to an injury suffered at the MIAA Championships. The young men’s and women’s teams showed a lot of promise with numerous NCAA Division II provisional marks and individual championships throughout the season.
