Description

Athletics conducts a broad-based NCAA Division III sports program for men and women. The athletic program is considered an integral part of the College's mission as recognized by the allocation of academic credit for participation.

All coaches lecture and are academic advisors in their areas of specialty within the Physical Education Department, therefore affording SUNY Cortland students the best instruction in activities and sports from faculty who are also practitioners.

The overall development of each student-athlete is of paramount importance. The office will provide the necessary vision and leadership for student-athletes to participate at the highest level of their ability while pursuing a quality education. Participation on an intercollegiate team will provide student-athletes with the opportunity to learn and develop values that foster self-discipline, teamwork, leadership skills and fair play in an equitable and diverse environment.
