Our coaching staff is the centerpiece for the program’s vitality and winning tradition. They work full-time for their respective teams by focusing on building positive, strong, and cooperative relationships while nurturing the educational and competitive spirit for each of their student-athletes. Certified athletic trainers, working in two full-service rehabilitation centers, as well as a robust and caring administrative team assist in providing the one of the best atmospheres in college athletics.
Our competition and recreational facilities are among the finest in Division III, and are impressive in their breadth, quality, and availability. The 80,000 square-foot Wise Sport & Fitness Center represents the hub of the athletic complex, and provides a home for the Gators’ indoor sports teams as well as numerous training areas for student-athletes and community members. The Wise Center is connected to the Mellon Recreation Building, housing a 25-yard pool with a separate diving well, racquetball courts, and athletic offices. The Robertson Athletic Complex encompasses over 100 picturesque acres on the northwest edge of campus and features excellent facilities for football, lacrosse, soccer, baseball, softball, tennis, and track & field, in addition to an NCAA championship-level cross country course.
