What an exciting time for Matador Athletics! This past weekend we hosted a few great events for our fans, alums and student-athletes. The weekend kicked off with the CSUN Softball team hosting their annual Leadoff Dinner in the Northridge Center on campus. The event gave friends, family and alums a chance to meet this year’s softball team. On Sunday, we had a Baseball Groundbreaking Ceremony for the new Irv Zakheim Entry Plaza. The day started in The Matadome with fans of all ages in attendance. The day continued out on Matador Field with a well-attended Alumni game ending in a 20-5 victory for the 2018 team. On Monday, CSUN Baseball held their 5th Annual Bob Hiegert Golf Classic at Porter Valley Country Club. Also, this weekend we sent two student-athletes to the NCAA hosted APPLE Institute in San Diego. CSUN was one of many schools represented at the event that was aimed at raising awareness for mental health and substance abuse in athletics and each school left the weekend with an action plan in place to bring back to campus.

Thanks for your support see you in The Matadome!

Follow Your Calling

Until you unveil your calling, existence has little meaning.

A person can only attain true fulfillment when performing their calling.

Fulfilling your potential is the ultimate definition of success.

Until you understand yourself and create a positive picture of who you are, you are not truly in control of yourself.

Regardless of your origin, position in life, or circumstances, there is a demand for your purpose.
