Cardinal ‘M’ Club celebrates excellence
in student-athletes, alumni

Outstanding student-athletes included:
David Feather, Sara Harstad, Sarah Gardner and Andrew Brueggen.
Every fall the Cardinal 'M' Club honors the previous year's student-athletes for their excellence as both athletes and students. This year there were so many who exceeded a 3.5 GPA and participated in a sport that the honorees had to be divided into seasons. Truly this is the type of excellence and sportsmanship that Saint Mary's seeks to foster in all of its students and particularly in its athlete-leaders.  Four athletes went above and beyond: Outstanding Scholar Athletes David Feather and Sara Harstad completed a successful sports season and maintained a 3.9 GPA overall; and Andrew Brueggen and Sarah Gardner excelled in their sport and their major and were named Outstanding Athletes of the Year.

New Sports Hall of Fame members included:
Nate DeMars '98, Frank Savino '98 and John Redpath '80.
The weekend’s festivities also included the induction of three new members into the SMU Sports Hall of Fame, as the Cardinal 'M' Club, in association with the Saint Mary's Alumni Office, welcomed the Class of 2011 — outstanding hockey players Nate DeMars '98, Frank Savino '98 and John Redpath '80.
