Stetson Celebrates Success With Hattemy Awards

DELAND, Fla. - The Stetson University Student-Athlete Advisory Committee (SAAC), the Hatter Athletic Department and hundreds of the program's student-athletes celebrated the 2025-26 season last night at the annual Hattemy Awards in Insight Credit Union Arena at Edmunds Center.

The evening served as a fun and light-hearted culmination of the numerous achievements from Hatter athletic teams as well as accomplishments of Stetson University's student-athletes throughout the 2025-26 academic year. Stetson student-athletes nominated and voted on each of the award winners, which are separated into two categories – superlative awards and athletic accomplishments.

Following brief remarks from Stetson University President Chris Roellke and Director of Athletics Ricky Ray, the 90-minute program was hosted by SAAC co-presidents Sydney Jenkins and Michael Petrovic. Each award was presented by a SAAC representative or athletics staff member.
