TOM BUTLER AWARD

The Tom Butler Award is presented annually (beginning in 1998) to a representative of the print or electronic media who is considered to have provided outstanding coverage to WIAC athletics. The award is dedicated to Tom Butler who served the conference faithfully for nearly three decades as its sports information director and played a significant role in establishing the WIAC as one of the premier Division III conferences in the country.
