The program began in 1991, and with the help and support of alumni and friends of the college, each year the goals have been met in both membership and dollars raised.<\/p>\n<p>The goal for the 2010-2011 campaign is $100,000 and 350 members. Members of the Pioneer Club, depending on their level, are invited to tailgates, hospitality suites or other special events prior to selected home games, matches or tournaments. Members may also receive discounts at the Tusculum College Bookstore, game passes and public address announcement recognition during games.<\/p>\n<p>Athletics at Tusculum College are a big part of campus life; in fact, nearly 50 percent of the students are student-athletes.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cOn campus, student-athletes have a higher graduation rate and higher GPA than those who are not student-athletes. They have seen quite a bit of success on the field and court as well,\u201d said Coughlin.<\/p>\n<p>During the 2010-2011 athletics season Tusculum College exemplified academic and athletic achievement. Tusculum Football led the nation in passing yards per game and Volleyball recorded the program\u2019s 700<sup>th<\/sup> win. Men\u2019s Soccer\u2019s Andy Goellner of Denver, Colo., finished ninth in the nation in saves per match and Women\u2019s Soccer posted 13 consecutive winning seasons. Men\u2019s Cross Country runner Simon Holzapfel, from Nuremberg, Germany, was named South Atlantic Conference Runner of the Year for the second straight season.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWhat an exciting program to be a part of, and as a Pioneer Club member, you can help student-athletes enjoy the unique Tusculum College experience,\u201d Coughlin added.<\/p>\n<p>Since the beginning of the Pioneer Club, Tusculum athletics programs have totaled 27 South Atlantic Conference Championships, 17 SAC Tournament championships, four NCAA Region championships, 68 All-Americans, 13 Academic All-Americans and 35 NCAA tournament appearances. Tusculum has also had four of the last five SAC Presidents\u2019 Awards, the most prestigious honor presented by the conference.
