RICHMOND, Ky. – The 2017-18 academic year was an amazing year for Eastern Kentucky University Athletics.
The Colonels won six Ohio Valley Conference championships and finished second in three other sports. Those performances propelled the department to its fifth straight OVC Commissioner's Cup, a symbol of overall athletic excellence in conference-sponsored championships.
