THE FIGHT FOR THE PRIDE CUP BEGINS HERE!

Purpose

The Pride Cup is a game that is played by all varsity teams. It is designed to provide an opportunity for student-athletes to compete in various life skills categories. These categories include-developing the individual, leadership, teamwork, supporting athletes, and academic achievement.

The winning team will receive a cash reward from the Student-Athlete Advisory Committee (SAAC) to be used at the discretion of its coach.
