Lafayette College Athletics

The PARDees, an annual awards show which began in 2012, recognizes Lafayette's senior student-athletes for their accomplishments and contributions to their programs. The event, which annually takes place on campus in the Williams Center for the Arts typically features a red-carpet walk prior to the awards show followed by a reception for senior student-athletes and their parents. It is generally held on the Thursday prior to Commencement, but will be a virtual event in 2020 on July 31 at 8 p.m.. 

The highlights of the event are the presentation of the Charles L. Albert '08 Award to the senior male and female student-athletes who are judged to be the most outstanding athlete. and the Class of 1913 Trophy given to those senior student-athletes who have attained the greatest distinction both as an athlete and a scholar.
