Athletics

Work Hard, Play Hard.

At St. Joseph’s College, you’ll be encouraged to exercise your talents beyond the classroom.

There’s probably no better way to become fully integrated into campus life than participating in some form of athletic pursuit. At SJC, you’ll have opportunities to make friends and stay active in a sport you already know well — or you can enjoy a completely new challenge.

You’ll have more choices than time. Just don’t stay on the sideline — unless, of course, you’re cheering enthusiastically for your fellow students.

"I am on the baseball team here at the college. I have met so many great people through sports, and that has continued through the athletic program at St. Joseph's. Many traits have been instilled through me with sports, such as teamwork, perseverance and the ability to always work hard."
