This is Tony, the softball coach at @AthleticsAU. His team did not play in our tournament this weekend. It would've been his first weekend to be home. Instead, he is here (at a rival school) making sure the players in our conference have a great field. That's #whyd3. @HCACDIII

Adult field day today. Thanks to our friends at the @HorizonLeague for always making sure the smaller conferences around town are able to have a community of sports professionals to enjoy fun with.
Always fun to have a visit and get some history lessons from someone that gave 10+ years to the @HCACDIII and loves it deeply. #theheartofD3 @RetHCACcommish
Thrilled to walk into a panel and see that @Coach_Nick_EC57 is going to share his wisdom. @EarlhamQuakers @HCACDIII #theheartofd3

NEW EXTRA POINTS:
Bowl season might be in trouble at the FBS level, but in D-III, it's growing.
I talked to a few folks behind DIII's newest bowl games to better understand why these games exist and how they work:

Roger was a wonderful ambassador for @FCGrizAthletics, the sport of golf as a whole, and the entire @HCACDIII. I will miss his wisdom and help in making our conference better. He was a wonderful teacher and his lessons will live on through all of his former players.
We are deeply saddened to announce the passing of long-time women's golf coach and staple in the Franklin community, Roger Lundy.
Our thoughts and prayers are with Roger's family, friends and team.
We will miss you dearly, Roger.
