Coming off a year that many desire to forget, when spring sports came to a halt and many fall sports were delayed, Liberty University Athletics has given Flames fans worldwide a spring sports season for the ages, adding seven conference titles and counting to the trophy case.
In the Spring 2021 semester, all but one of Liberty’s 20 NCAA Athletics programs (football) competed as the university packed in almost a year’s worth of competition into one spring season, dubbing the busy schedule “Super Spring.”
And it was “super” in many ways. Liberty Athletics donned its highest number of ASUN Conference crowns this season, taking titles in Men’s Indoor Track & Field, Women’s Cross Country, Men’s Basketball, Women’s Soccer, Men’s Golf, and Men’s Tennis. The Women’s Swimming & Diving team also claimed victory in the CCSA.
