Champions & Scholars
Excellence On and Off the Field
Champions & Scholars was created to engage and embrace the Flyer Faithful from across the country. We partner together to sustain a proud tradition — providing and enhancing opportunities for more than 400 University of Dayton student-athletes on 17 teams.
All donors with an annual gift to the Dayton Flyers athletics program will be recognized as members of Champions & Scholars for the current fiscal year (July 1 – June 30).

Invitations to Open Events
* Courtesies are based on cumulative current fiscal year contributions to athletics and are subject to appropriate limitations required due to COVID-19. Postseason ticket eligibility assignment is based on season ticket status and lifetime giving to athletics. Gold, silver and bronze access to the Flight Deck and Boesch Lounge is based on availability.
Your donation to Champions & Scholars remains fully charitable; however, due to the recent change in tax legislation, any funds provided for the UD Arena seating program are no longer deductible. Please consult your tax adviser when determining the deductibility of your contribution.
If you have any questions feel free to reach out to Josh Postorino, director of athletic development, at jpostorino1@udayton.edu.
