Congratulations to Cade Gordon on receiving the Alumni Legacy Scholarship! Cade is one of five recipients for the 2024-25 school year that will receive support from funds raised by the Alumni Association throughout the year.

Cade is a sophomore and is on the football team. His grandfather also attended Texas Wesleyan.  

What is your major and planned graduation year?

Sports communications with a minor in finance and I plan to graduate in 2027.

What are your plans after graduation?

After graduation I plan to pursue football for as long as I can and then transition into announcing games.

Why did you choose Texas Wesleyan?

I chose Texas Wesleyan because it is close to home and the smaller class sizes allow for me to grasp what I am being taught. Also the amazing football program.

What are your favorite things about being a student at TXWES?

I love the community of Texas Wesleyan and how I have the ability to study what I want, play a sport, and actively pursue my faith.

Tell us some interesting facts about yourself.

I love playing guitar and I write and record my own country music.

Your support of the alumni association makes these scholarships possible. Applications for the 2025-26 Alumni Association Legacy Student Scholarship are due Jan. 31, 2025.
