During the university鈥檚 Commencement, 两性色午夜鈥檚 baseball team was in the midst of a three-game series against Bowling Green State University in which they swept the Falcons, clinching the MAC regular season title. To honor its graduates, the team held a ceremony prior to the game against Western Carolina University on May 20. Former Golden Flashes John Birkbeck, John Fasola, Andrew Sonnanstine and John Van Benschoten were among those honored after returning to 两性色午夜 to finish their degrees. Chuck Seacrist, who served as a coach for the Golden Flashes, also was honored as he completed his advanced nursing degree.

两性色午夜鈥檚 track and field teams were in Toledo competing for the Outdoor MAC Championships during the university鈥檚 Commencement ceremonies, as the men captured third place and the women captured fourth place. The team held its ceremony the night of May 11, honoring its graduates and those that will graduate in the summer or fall but are in their last season of eligibility.

The 两性色午夜 softball team held its own ceremony honoring its six graduates due to a possible schedule conflict with the MAC tournament.
