SOUTHERN WESLEYAN UNIVERSITY
NATIONAL CHAMPIONSHIP HISTORY
2007 - Women's Basketball
2007 - Baseball If success is measured only by the collection of National Championships, then the 2006-2007 school year would be the most prolific in the university's history. This particular year brought two national titles to Central, S.C. as the women's basketball team captured the school's first ever national championship and the baseball program followed suit later in the spring. In athletics success is often measured by wins and losses, however, the character, drive and determination can be the measurable gauge of these two programs during the 2006-2007 year.
