Web Site Dedication
In Recognition of
TERRY RATAICZAK
For His Dedication to Building and Promoting This Website.
The year was 2000, and the Executive Board decided it was time that the Ohio Valley Athletic Conference enter the Computer Age. So it enlisted the help of Terry to design the first website that was unveiled at the Mount deChantal Kroger Community Room. Once this was in place, it was felt that the Conference needed to communicate more through e-mail, so accounts were set up for close to 1,000 coaches, administrators, directors, and media. Everything went well for a few years until it was agreed that it was time to really kick things up a notch. Once again Terry oversaw and redesigned the entire website. Group e-mails were cleaned up and tightened, Google maps to all schools were pinpointed, and the history of the Conference not only became preserved but open to the entire world. If you spend a few minutes and visit this website, you will be amazed at the information it offers to our member schools. But more important, with the expansion of the OVAC, it allows our coaches and schools to communicate instantly with each other.
For that reason, the OVAC dedicates this website to Terry Rataiczak and thanks him for his guidance and expertise over the past decade.
