What a difference a decade makes.

BGSU Athletics prepares our student athletes to be Built for the Game, Ready for Life. The initiative focuses on preparing student-athletes not only to compete and achieve success in their sport, but also to access programs and services that help them transition into leaders — or “bosses” — in the professional world. #BallersandBosses

As one of the premier academic athletic departments in the Mid-American Conference, Bowling Green State University continues to set the standard for success in the classroom and in competition. BGSU recently earned the conference’s Institutional Award as the top athletic department in the league academically and recorded the highest cumulative GPA in program history at 3.51, while Falcon teams consistently compete for championships across all sports.

Contributions to the Football Enhancement Fund during BGSU One Day will assist in the funding of the priorities below:

  • Nutrition Support
  • Enhancements to Student-Athlete Recovery
  • Assistance with the Recruitment and Retention of Student-Athletes
