Throughout its history, Ursinus has celebrated success in intercollegiate athletics and the contributions of our student-athletes. True to the spirit of a liberal arts education, we honor athletic accomplishments and the qualities of character—work ethic, leadership, and humility—that continue to be the foundation of our alumni’s success.
