Towson University Athletics

To Fans and Friends of Towson Athletics:

Greetings and welcome to the Towson Athletics compliance office website. It is critical that both the institution and the individual do our part to learn and abide by the NCAA, CAA and Towson University rules that impact Towson recruits, student-athletes, coaches and boosters. The goals of the Towson Athletics compliance program are to:

• Maintain control of its athletic programs through the responsible administrators, faculty and institutional bodies.
• Educate coaches, staff, student-athletes and other individuals involved with the athletics program in their institutional responsibilities under the rules and develop operating systems that provide guidance in how to work within these rules.
• Monitor all aspects of the university's athletics programs to ensure compliance, identify and report to the NCAA all instances in which compliance has not been achieved, and affirm that appropriate corrective actions are taken.
• Help all fans and friends of Towson Athletics comply and maintain competency with all applicable NCAA, conference and institutional rules and hold each individual responsible to report any violation of these rules of which he or she is aware.

The university's goals in responding to any violations will be to encourage communication, to seek consistency and accountability and, above all, to send a strong message that the university is unequivocally committed to rules compliance.

Thank you for caring about Towson Athletics and taking the time to review this website. Your assistance in preventing violations of NCAA, CAA and institutional rules plays a vital role in supporting Towson Athletics, and the hundreds of student-athletes who wear black and gold every year. As we strive for continued excellence, we always seek the highest standard of ethical conduct. Towson is proud to have your loyal support, dedication and enthusiasm for the Tigers.

NCAA rules are the responsibility of everyone from student-athletes to administrators to boosters. In helping Towson Athletics achieve its higher purpose, we ask your assistance in continuing to build a compliance conscience.
