Opportunities in Athletics

(Athletics, Class of 2013) Permanent link All Posts

Having just returned from a basketball game, it amazes me how great it is to go to a college in which people can play sports for the first time at the NCAA level, granted it is Division 3. Two seasons of sports are mandatory here, and whether they are sports between companies, clubs, or NCAA players, there is a large opportunity to play. Last fall I rowed crew for the very first time along with seven others. A sophomore here is playing basketball for the first time this year. Many of my friends and shipmates go out for sports they have never tried ranging from pistol to cheerleading to water polo, and not many colleges allow this variety of participation among its students. It’s just another representation of the opportunities given here at the Academy.
