MEADVILLE, Pa. -- It's Division III Week!

Allegheny College and the Department of Athletics proudly celebrate Division III Week, a positive opportunity to observe and celebrate the impact athletics and student-athletes have on campus and in the surrounding community.

The 14th annual Division III Week runs from Monday, April 7, through Sunday, April 13.

The event is part of Division III's Identity Initiative, introduced in 2010 to sharpen the division's identity and enable schools, conferences, and student-athletes to consistently explain why they prefer to compete in Division III. The initiative is guided by a strategic-positioning platform, describing Division III as a place where student-athletes can "follow your passions and develop your potential" through an approach that combines rigorous academics, competitive athletics, and an opportunity to pursue other interests.
