2023-24 Student-Athlete Advisory Committee (SAAC)
Leadership team comprised of nominated student-athletes from our 20 varsity sports, and our spirit team. These students are recognized by their coaches, advisors and peers as leaders on their teams. The committee is charged with discussing student-athlete life at Syracuse, giving feedback to ACC/NCAA legislation, organizing events for the student-athlete body, and acting as a liaison between student-athletes and administration. Â #WeAboveMe
Mission: We, SAAC, COMMIT to be LEADERS of our teams and in our Syracuse COMMUNITY. We are the VOICE of STUDENT-ATHLETES, DEDICATED to EMPOWER each other, CULTIVATE CHANGE, and build the FUTURE of ORANGE PRIDE.
