🔼 Great Success. Bulldog men’s basketball had a solid start to its 2025 recruiting class with three new signees, including two ranked inside the ESPN Top 100.

🔼 Continuing The Tradition. The Diamond Dawgs are just a couple of months away from returning to The Dude for the 2025 season as the team continues to grow the Bulldog tradition.
