Drake Athletics MAD DOGS (Making A Difference Doing Our Good Stuff) Competition

The Drake Athletic Department believes that Drake University student-athletes are among the best yond people around, and the MAD DOGS Incentive Program is designed to highlight the positive things they do for the campus and community in which they live.  Drake student-athletes rely heavily on support from faulty, staff, students, and the greater Des Moines community, and it seems appropriate to reciprocate whenever possible.  The goal is to find more ways to help Drake students and athletes become integrated in all aspects of campus like and to encourage connections that aid in their development as individuals and responsible citizens.  The objective is to recognize and reward those student-athletes who are already giving generously of their time and resources to support and assist others, and to encourage others to join them in these efforts.

Top MAD DOGS teams and individuals are recognized each year at the National Student-Athlete Day recognition.
