College Prowler Take

Without a football team, Loyola seems to be lacking in the school spirit department. The basketball team isn’t known for its playing abilities, so few spectators attend the games. The men’s lacrosse team seems to be the most popular sport on campus, along with the soccer team. This is because these teams do pretty well during their seasons, and everyone loves to support a winning team. Showing up for games is easy because every student can get tickets with their student ID.

Many students join in athletics through intramural teams. There are teams for anything from innertube water polo to squash to flag football. With the amazing FAC, there’s no shortage of student recreation opportunities.

Not Much School Spirit

C+

The big sports here are Basketball and Lacrosse. That being said, no one really cares to go to the games, minus a select few avid fans.

Varsity sports are kind of popular. Mostly, the lacrosse and soccer teams are the most popular because they are the best teams we have. But it’s not crazy like some big schools. IM sports are pretty big, though. Almost everyone I know is on some team. It’s a good way to do something active, yet not get so involved.

No one really cares. People seem to spend the same amount of time thinking about club sports.

School Spirit

Somtimes, campus seems to lack school spirit because, unlike some larger schools with great football teams, Loyola doesn’t have much to celebrate in the way of sports. However, students still feel a pride for their football-less school and support it in other ways, like cheering on different teams, joining clubs, and attending special events around campus.

Getting Tickets

All full-time undergraduate students are entitled to receive one free general admission ticket to all Loyola home athletic events. Tickets are required for men’s and women’s basketball and men’s and women’s lacrosse. This does not include MAAC or NCAA post-season events held at Loyola College. Students present their valid Loyola ID card at the gate to gain admittance to the game. Student chair-back seating for all home men’s basketball games are located in sections six and seven. These sections are considered the student section. To purchase additional tickets, or if you have any questions, please call the athletic business office at (410) 617-2547.
