GREENVILLE, S.C. - For the third consecutive year, Grace College’s athletic department took home the top honor at the annual NCCAA national convention.

Grace earned its third-straight NCCAA Presidential Award, presented to Grace’s President Dr. Drew Flamm and A.D. Chad Briscoe on Thursday evening.

The Presidential Award recognizes the top athletic department for the school year. The points are calculated based on team finishes at NCCAA national championship events. It marks the first time a school has won three-straight outright NCCAA Div. I Presidential Awards since the award was established in 2000.

Grace grabbed four national championships during the school year, including men’s cross country, women’s cross country, women’s soccer and women’s outdoor track and field.

Women’s golf and men’s outdoor track and field finished as NCCAA national runners-up as well.

“These awards are a direct reflection of the tremendous work throughout the year put in by our coaches and student athletes,” said Grace Director of Athletics Chad Briscoe. “I deeply appreciate the support from Dr. Flamm as well as the cabinet and board at Grace which allows our programs the opportunity to compete on the national level. We thank the Lord for the platform to make Christ known through athletics.”

The Lancers have 15 national championships now in the trophy haul, including 13 since 2019.
