Athletics

As an alumnus of Aquinas, I take immense pride in our institution's enduring commitment to academic and athletic excellence. Throughout its storied history, Aquinas has maintained a steadfast belief in the importance of a comprehensive athletic program as a vital component of our educational mission.

Our athletics program at Aquinas is dedicated to creating a safe, enjoyable, and supportive environment where our student-athletes can cultivate valuable traits such as character, integrity, loyalty, teamwork, and sportsmanship. We are proud to note that a significant number of our students actively participate in athletics and extracurricular activities.

Our coaches, who are among the finest in their fields, not only impart athletic skills but also instill values that promote lifelong fitness and a commitment to a healthy, drug-free lifestyle. We strive to ensure that our athletics program reflects our school motto, "Teach me goodness, discipline, and knowledge."

To our current student-athletes and those considering joining our athletics programs, you'll find not just a team, but a family that supports you both on and off the field. You will forge enduring friendships and develop a profound dedication to Aquinas, embodying the spirit of our alma mater, "Aquinas Evermore." Above all, remember the words, "I can do all things through Christ, who strengthens me."

Go Irish!

Sincerely,

Athletic Teams
