he Duck Plucker’s Ball is an opportunity for sportsmen throughout the region to
celebrate the outdoors and support the efforts of the William Penn Athletic Booster

April 13, 2013, the MCC Conference multi-event competition (heptathlon and decathlon),
the Statesmen Relays on April 19–20, and the MCC Conference Meet on May 3–4. Each

The William Penn Athletic Booster Club works hard to support the university’s 15
NAIA sports, as well as the four non-NAIA programs. The university-affiliated support
organization helps fund projects for William Penn’s athletic programs that are often
outside of the normal operating budget. Boosters are also given the opportunity to
attend luncheons throughout the year, highlighting our athletic programs and vote
monthly for the male and female player of the month. The organization is a proud
sponsor of the William Penn University Athletic Hall of Fame, to honor graduates
deserving special recognition for their success and commitment to their respective
athletic program(s) while a student or coach on campus.
As a member of a NAIA Champions of Character institution, the Booster Club proudly
presents the Dana Atkins Award each year to the senior student-athlete with the
highest GPA.
