There If You Want It

The College's sports arent huge. People follow them and if were good, then people can get excited. But otherwise, the football games are more fun to tailgate than to go to. Facilities are generally nice. The football stadium is beautiful and the big gym is brand new. IM sports are pretty big, mostly within the fraternity league and with teams of freshman halls though.

Club Sports Rule

Football games are usually well-attended. Some die-hard fans attend games for other sports, but most students just don't care. Few students travel to away games. Club and IM sports are much more popular, especially with Greek life. It's easy to get involved, because you usually don't need prior experience, and they're a great way to meet new people.

Mediocre

Sports are not the main priority of most students here. That being said, it can be pretty fun to go to the games because most students that attend are spirited and the athletes are among the most normal people at the school. Athletes get almost no special treatment as far as class preference or academic breaks. I've found that even star athletes are academically capable. Surprisingly, most students are in relatively good shape. Club and intramural sports are very popular and the rec center is excellent.
