As we celebrate Newman University's 75th anniversary year, the weekend events will provide a special opportunity to look at the history of inter-collegiate athletics, which began at Newman in 1967 through 39 years with the National Association of Entercollegiate Athletics (NAIA) and in its full acceptance this year into the National Collegiate Athletic Association (NCAA) Division II level.
Newman has distinguished itself as the only private university in the state of Kansas that is a member of the NCAA.
