Colgate University Athletics

Our pillars represent the values and attributes that make Colgate Athletics unique. They represent the core of who we are as an athletics program, serving to support our platform and guiding our overall story.

Champions of Excellence

Competing for Life:
Our scholar-athletes view every day as an opportunity to get better. They relentlessly train, practice and compete because they are determined to push their limits and maximize their potential.

A Rich History:
Our 25 NCAA Division I athletic teams carry a proud tradition of excellence in sport—our success at the national level, and our Conference Titles are a testament to not only our athletic talents, but our commitment to hard work and the pursuit of success.

We Set the Standard
As a model Division I Athletics Program, we maintain rigorous standards and strive for high moral character because true excellence can’t be measured by statistics or wins and losses.
