SU Athletics Launches New Career Fair for Student-Athletes

Salisbury University’s athletics and recreation department launched a new initiative designed to boost career prospects for student-athletes and department staff members.

The university held its first-ever Career Combine on March 9, 2026, inside the Guerrieri Student Union as part of the newly established Sea Gull Leadership Academy (SGLA).

The event operated similarly to a traditional job fair, bringing together students with potential employers, representatives from graduate programs, and staff from the university’s career services office. Participants had the chance to learn about internship openings, seasonal work opportunities, and permanent positions while making valuable professional connections.

The program serves both varsity and club-level student-athletes as well as students employed within the athletics department, representing a fresh approach to career development within the university’s athletic programs.
