Behrend Magazine: Fall 2020

On the Cover:

Brian Streeter, senior director of Athletics, loves sports. He loves coaching. He loves Penn State Behrend. When he arrived at Behrend in 1997, the only athletic facility on campus was Erie Hall, which housed ten active teams. Today, the college boasts twenty-four teams and Streeter needs a golf cart to travel to all of the athletics fields and facilities that have been built from one end of campus to the other. From Junker Center and its pool, an eight-lane competition track, ball fields, and a lighted soccer/lacrosse stadium, Streeter has been the driving force behind nearly a quarter-century of sustained growth in athletics at Behrend. For that, he was recently inducted into the Erie Athletics Hall of Fame. Read more about Streeter and his accomplishments.
