Ultimately, the athletic department hopes the event ignites excitement and connection throughout Defender Nation for the basketball season and beyond. “Late Night with the Defenders creates a unique space for alumni, students, and community members to come together and engage with Defender athletics in a fun and personal way that will spark momentum for athletic events and campus life throughout the year,” says Trent Roose, associate athletic director of facilities and operations at Dordt.
“We’re thrilled to bring this event back,” says Dr. Darin Keizer, director of athletics at Dordt. “It’s a great opportunity to come together with a common purpose, recognizing our accomplishments from last year and kicking off the season with energy and enthusiasm. We can’t wait to see everyone there and to enjoy this memorable experience together.”
