2005 Board of Directors

The volunteer leadership group that conducts the business of the Order of Sparta is the organization’s Board of Directors. Comprised of former student-athletes and former coaches, the Board has regularly scheduled monthly meetings every month except July. Board membership is open to any Order of Sparta member.

The Division of Intercollegiate Athletics and all Order members are indebted to these outstanding individuals for their service to Spartan Athletics and the former athletes’ association.
