The event honored the projects major donors and signaled out the extraordinary support of leadership donors Jeffrey and Kimberly Yordon and Fran and the late George Wilkins.
Guests enjoyed dinner, music, and a performance by the Huskie cheerleaders. They heard from President John Peters, Head Coach Joe Novak, and Athletic Director Jim Phillips. The crowd relived the excitement with video replays of Huskie Championship moments. And fittingly, the student-athletes who will benefit from the center thanked donors themselves. The evening gave some of NIUs top supporters a chance to bask in the glory of NIUs successes both on and off the field
an opportunity these champions have certainly earned.
