Facilities/Services - Athletics/Recreation

Involvement in athletic events as either a participant or a spectator is often a pleasant break from academic pursuits. For the spectator, men's baseball (Fall 2004), football, basketball, track and cross country or women's soccer, softball, basketball, volleyball, track, and cross country offer some of the best sports action in college athletics.

Team schedules are available in the Athletic Offices in the Physical Education Building. Athletic events tickets are available from the Fiscal Office Cashier's Counter in the Administration Building and at the events. Full-time students may attend home athletic events at no cost; part-time students must pay a nominal fee. The RamCard is required for entrance to athletic events.

The intramural sports program offers the student opportunities for participation in flag football, soccer, tennis, badminton, golf, racquetball, volleyball, bowling, basketball, softball, wally ball and archery. For more information call the Intramural Sports Office at (325) 942-2034.
