Goldies Awards Celebrate Outstanding Athletes for 2023

Athletics April 26, 2023

It’s Goldies time! Cornerstone University Athletics hosted the annual Goldies award ceremony celebrating our amazing student-athletes and honoring the top performers this year. With over 500 student athletes at Cornerstone, this annual event honors their accomplishments and the important role CU Athletics plays as part of our campus community and mission.

“The Goldies are something we look forward to each and every year. Any time we get a chance to recognize the student athletes and coaches for their accomplishments, we want to make sure we do it well and in front of their peers. A lot of me wishes we could hand out awards to everyone who is deserving but each year I look at our honorees and it is humbling to see all of their hard work paying off!” said Aaron Sagraves, athletic director at Cornerstone University.
