The University of Mary Washington Athletic Department is thrilled to join the rest of the university for 2025 Mary Wash Day from Noon on Wednesday, April 2 to Noon on Thursday, April 3!
Mary Wash Day is a day dedicated to giving back, strengthening communities, and making a lasting impact at the university. Eagles around the world once again will have 24 hours to rise to the challenge and see what they can accomplish by working together.

Friends of Athletics is introducing a donation match challenge this year. Hall of Fame Swimmers Mariah Butler Vogelgesang '00 and Kimberly Myers Corazzini '00 want to double your impact. They will match each gift made to Friends of Athletics, dollar for dollar, up to $2,000. Double your gift today by supporting our student-athletes!
When you make a gift to support UMW Athletics, you are investing in the student-athlete experience in the following ways:
- Development and programming for departmental leadership training and national leadership opportunities for the Student-Athlete Advisory Committee (SAAC)
- Boosting recruiting dollars for every team and professional development opportunities for head and assistant coaches
- Enhancing athletic facilities, including those for game day, practice, and sports medicine, as well as spaces for academics and studying, offices, auxiliary training
- New sport-specific technology and teaching tools for practice
- Custom training equipment and game day apparel for student-athletes
- Upgrades for long-distance travel costs like hotels, buses, and high-nutrition meals
- Team programming and experiences for sports education and chemistry building
We need all athletic alumni, parents, families, faculty, staff, students, and friends to join #TogetherUMW to help us reach our goals on this #MaryWashDay.
