The Peach Belt Conference announced that the Albany State Golden Rams women's soccer team has received the 2023 Fall Team Sportsmanship Award.  Albany State University has won the women's soccer award for the third year in a row, the longest such streak for women's soccer in the history of the honor.

"It's an honor to win this award.  It shows that the team has bought in to what we are trying to build at Albany State University both on and off the field.  I'm very proud of this group and the growth we are making here," said Head Coach Jared Beauchamp. 

Started in 2008, the program presents an award following each championship season to the team in that sport that best exemplifies the spirit of sportsmanship and generally conducts themselves with a high degree of integrity, character and class. The team award is selected by other teams who compete in that sport. Points are awarded based on how each team finished in the voting and in June, the institution with the highest totals will receive the 'PBC Institution of the Year Sportsmanship Award.

"I am so proud of our women's soccer program for receiving the Peach Belt Conference Team Sportsmanship Award. This achievement exemplifies our commitment to not only success on the field but also to #CreatingLegacies of sportsmanship, integrity and excellence within our community," said Director of Athletics Dr. Kristene Kelly.
