HAPPY NATIONAL COACHES DAY! Today, Dakota student-athletes and the Dakota Athletic Department want to take a moment to recognize and thank our incredible coaches. Thank you for the countless hours you dedicate to our programs, our teams and, most importantly, our student-athletes. You challenge us to compete, encourage us to grow, and help us become better athletes, students and people. Your impact goes far beyond the field, court, pool, track and classroom. You teach us the value of commitment, discipline, teamwork, leadership and perseverance while always reminding us that academics come first. From early mornings and late nights to practices, games, competitions and everything in between, your dedication does not go unnoticed. Thank you for investing your time, energy and passion into our students and Dakota Athletics. We are grateful for everything you do! From all of us at Dakota Athletics and our student-athletes: THANK YOU, COACHES Happy National Coaches Day!
