Parkside student-athletes, staff, faculty, fans and supporters,

This moment marks a historic milestone for our department as we unveil the Rangers Roadmap — the first-ever comprehensive strategic plan for Parkside Athletics. This five-year blueprint will guide our journey from 2025 to 2030, setting a clear course for excellence that is grounded in collaboration, built on accountability, and centered on our student-athletes.

The Rangers Roadmap represents more than just a strategic document. It's a living standard that reflects who we are and where we're headed as Rangers. This plan is about clarity, purpose, and discipline — a commitment to serve, compete, and grow together in ways that strengthen not only our athletic programs but also our people and our purpose.

Over the past 16 months, we have engaged in thorough assessments, thoughtful deliberations, and collaborative brainstorming sessions to formulate this strategic roadmap. The result is a vision and plan that aligns with our institutional values while setting a bold path forward in the ever-changing world of college athletics. We are not just adapting to the modern era — we are preparing to lead — where success demands that we be innovative and adaptive, but also steadfast in our commitment to accountability, culture, and development.

The Rangers Roadmap is designed to be a living document that adapts to the fast-paced environment of college athletics. This ongoing process of assessment, reflection, and accountability ensures that our vision stays active and responsive to the evolving needs of our department.

We are positioning Parkside Athletics to be successful in this new era while remaining committed to our championship standard. Our mission remains clear: to develop and graduate leaders, win championships, and unite our community through the power of sport.

Our standard isn't just high. It's championship-caliber.

The time is now. The Rangers Roadmap is here.
