Thank you Bulldog and friends! Your generosity will impact future generations of Union students. We couldn’t do it without you!

Because of the generosity of the Bulldog family, Dear Old Union Day was a success!

Thanks to 173 donors and supporters, more than $51,000 was raised through gifts to support Union students through scholarships, academics, athletics, and more.

Thank you for believing in Union and investing in our momentum.

Congratulations to one of our own, Mr. TJ Wesselman ‘06- a true leader in athletics across the state of Kentucky. We celebrate your continued success and the outstanding way you represent Union Commonwealth University. Your impact makes us proud!

Owen County High School is proud to celebrate our own TJ Wesselman on being named Athletic Administrator of the Year for the state of Kentucky!

This honor is so well deserved. While many see the events, games, and successes on the surface, what often goes unnoticed is the countless hours of hard work, organization, and dedication happening behind the scenes. TJ works tirelessly to create opportunities for our student-athletes and ensure everything runs smoothly for our programs.

We are incredibly lucky to have someone so committed to our students, our school, and our community.

Congratulations, TJ! ❤️🏆
