LOCK HAVEN, Pa. --- The Pennsylvania State Athletic Conference released their list of "Made in the PSAC" honorees on Wednesday, with four former Golden Eagles making the prestigious list.
 
The list recognizes former student-athletes who have gone on to influential careers after graduation – in this case, careers that do not include being a professional athlete.
 
The PSAC is celebrating its 75th anniversary season in 2025-26 and will honor 300 of its most prominent contributors throughout the month of September.
 
"For 75 years, the PSAC has been more than a conference--it's been a proving ground for excellence, leadership, and lifelong impact," Commissioner Steve Murray said. "The 'Made in the PSAC' honorees reflect the very best of what our institutions represent. Their achievements stand as a testament to the transformative power of Division II athletics and the values that define the PSAC: integrity, resilience, and a commitment to something greater than oneself."
 
The PSAC was founded on March 11, 1951, and comprised 14 institutions as the Pennsylvania State Teachers College Athletic Conference (PSTCAC). Since then, it has grown into one of the largest conferences in the NCAA across all three divisions.
