Athletics

The mission of the Springfield College Department of Athletics is to provide a competitive varsity athletics program through offering a variety of opportunities with equal emphasis given to all sports. The Department of Athletics is dedicated to offering an educational experience that promotes development guided by the values of tradition, integrity, commitment to excellence, respect, and relationship building. 

These values are consistent with the College’s humanics philosophy, which allows the Department of Athletics to offer a co-curricular experience that emphasizes the development of the whole person in spirit, mind, and body. This approach enables student-athletes to pursue excellence in the classroom, on the playing surfaces, and in the communities.
