Rocky Mount, N.C. - On Mondays this summer, the NCWC Department of Athletics has been counting down the top-10 moments of the 2014-2015 season. The #2 moment looks back on the "Nifty Fifty" anniversary of our Awards Ceremony.
#2... NIFTY FIFTY AWARDS (APRIL 23, 2015)
The North Carolina Wesleyan Department of Athletics hosted its 50th Annual Awards Ceremony on Thursday, April 23rd, in Minges Auditorium of the Dunn Center. Coaches, staff and student-athletes came together to celebrate the accomplishments of both individuals and teams from the 2014-2015 season.
The night began with a video commemorating the 50th anniversary of the awards ceremony. The short film took the audience through five decades of Wesleyan athletics and honored the true founders of our Battling Bishops: Dr. Raymond "Moe" Bauer, Coach Don Scalf and Coach Jean Edge. The video ended with the 7th Annual Wesley Awards, which offered a lighthearted take on the athletics season. Dr. Bauer's son, Paul, proceeded to escort Coach Scalf to the stage amid a standing ovation to accept the 50-Year Wesley.
