ABOUT WABASH ATHLETICS
Wabash Athletics sponsors 12 varsity sports that compete at the NCAA Division III level and within the North Coast Athletic Conference.
The mission of Wabash College is to achieve "excellence in teaching and learning within a community built on close and caring relationships among students, faculty, and staff". A Wabash education "encourages young men to adopt a life of intellectual and creative growth, self-awareness, and physical activity." We believe that physical activity and Athletics competition provide balance in the lives of young men engaged in rigorous academic pursuits.
With academic excellence at the core of what we do, Wabash also strives for excellence and broad participation in its intercollegiate Athletics programs, intramural competitions, and recreational activities. Our program is designed for the benefit of all our students and for the enjoyment of the entire College community. It is supported by our outstanding Athletics facilities and a diversified program of intramural Athletics, which includes about twenty distinct activities.
While providing opportunities to pursue Athletics excellence, our program is also intended to make participation in intercollegiate athletics possible for all who want this experience. The Athletics staff takes special pride in working with goal-oriented young men attracted to the College by the rigor and reputation of its academic program. They are committed to achieving outstanding results while maintaining the quality of the student's academic experience.

ABOUT NCAA DIII
More than 190,000 student-athletes at 450 institutions make up Division III, the largest NCAA division both in number of participants and number of schools. The Division III experience offers participation in a competitive athletic environment that pushes student-athletes to excel on the field and build upon their potential by tackling new challenges across campus.
Academics are the primary focus for Division III student-athletes. The division minimizes the conflicts between athletics and academics and helps student-athletes progress toward graduation through shorter practice and playing seasons and regional competition that reduces time away from academic studies. Participants are integrated on campus and treated like all other members of the student body, keeping them focused on being a student first.
