WHY D3 SPORTS?

  • Because the leading scorer on the basketball team isn’t a future NBA All-Star, but a future 3rd grade teacher.
  • Because it isn’t about making the cover of Sports Illustrated.
  • Because the quarterback who threw the winning touchdown isn’t the next Brett Favre, but a business’ next CEO.
  • Because the man in the first row cheering you on is your history professor.
  • Because the girl who wins all those matches won’t be a Wimbledon champion, but a future surgeon. 
  • Because the homerun-hitter on the baseball team won’t play in the Major Leagues, but will write for the New York Times.
  • Because the goalie on the soccer team is also President of her sorority.
  • Because the people in the stands actually know YOU, not just your name and stats.
  • Because the captain of the team is also the school newspaper editor. 
  • And, because it’s not about being on ESPN, getting drafted or signing autographs… it’s all about the love of the game.
