On Wednesday, October 29th Williams President Morty Schapiro and Athletic Director Harry Sheehy were on hand to loan one of the Ephs' 12 Directors' Cups to the Sports Museum of American (SmA) located in lower Manhattan in New York City.
The Directors' Cup is emblematic of athletic supremacy in NCAA Division III and the Ephs have won 12 of the 13 awarded, including the last 10 in a row.
The Directors' Cup will be on loan at the Sports Museum in America for five years.
Philip Schwalb, Founder and CEO of the Sports Museum of America, accepted the Cup in a ceremony at the museum.
The Sports Museum of America maintains an exclusive partnership with 50 single-sport Halls of Fames, Museums, and National Governing Bodies and other sports organizations across North America.
The mission of the SmA is to showcase the history, grandeur and significance of sports in American culture, and to remind us all why sports has spawned a worldwide community of avid fans and admirers.
Visitors can choose to experience highlights of all sports in 90 jam-packed minutes or immerse themselves for hours in the great sports stories that touch us all so deeply.
SmA is home to college football's Heisman Trophy more than 2 dozen mechanical and computer interactive exhibits putting one in the middle of the action of a favorite sport - whether it's feeling the sensation of an incoming, 120mph slapshot from the hockey goalie's perspective, stepping on to a simulated NASCAR racetrack with cars screaming by on floor-to-ceiling screens, feeling the pressure on an NFL official to make the correct call on the field, or exploring Cisco's virtual "ballparks of the future" kiosk. |
