FLORIDA ATLANTIC UNIVERSITY

In his three years as Florida Atlantic University’s Athletics Director, Pat Chun has been instrumental for the program’s progress. Hired in July of 2012, Chun inherited a fledgling Owls football team that had just finished 1-11 in 2011. Since then, the Owls have been making strides. The university made the jump from the Sun Belt to Conference USA in 2013. Pair the recent success and newfound excitement around campus with a young stadium that hosts the Major League Lacrosse team the Florida Launch, the nationally televised Boca Raton Bowl, and more, it is no surprise that Chun’s goal is to write history and build tradition at FAU.  Here Chun spoke about the state of FAU Athletics, campus life, and building a tradition of winning. – Patrick Pinak, Palm Beach Illustrated, Read More
