INDIANAPOLIS (8/12/2024) -- The Horizon League revealed the student-athletes who will represent the 11 institutions and comprise #HLSAAC for the 2024-25 academic year.

Men's soccer senior Alex Diac and women's cross country and track and field junior Ayva Schmalz will both have the honor of representing the Titans. Schmalz will also serve as the Secretary and on the Governance Cabinet.

Why it Matters:
Horizon League SAAC participated in an in-person meeting in early June and will continue to meet over several video conferences throughout the academic year.
 
Each of the League's member institutions is represented by two student-athletes on the Student-Athlete Advisory Committee.
 
Additionally, SAAC members will serve as Cabinet members in the Horizon League governance structure while two student-athletes will also represent the student-athlete voice and hold one vote on the League Council, alongside all 11 Athletics Directors, one Faculty Athletics Representative and one Senior Woman Administrator.

#HLSAAC initiatives for the upcoming year include student-athlete professional development and community impact.
