It would be easier to start with the things Adam Van Cleave cannot do rather than the many things he can do. Concordia's Swiss Army Knife of sorts exemplifies what it means to succeed in all aspects of life as a @CUNEFootball student-athlete. 🏈 FEATURE ➡️ cune.edu/athletics/teams/foo…

Big catches and big smiles are part of the full Jonny Puelz experience. In bringing his fun-loving style to @CUNEFootball, Jonny has made a name for himself while deepening the Puelz family connection. We go in-depth on Jonny's journey. 🏈 FEATURE ➡️ cune.edu/athletics/teams/foo…

Jabo left his mark on this program. Epitome of a student-athlete. Makes everyone around him better. Builds people up. Always willing to drop what he’s doing to help others out! Not great at burger eating contests…
