On behalf of all of our coaches and student-athletes here at Saint Francis, we welcome you to the class of 2030! We are excited to have you as a part of the family and hope you will consider playing a sport during your time here.
We view sports as an extension of the classroom and feel strongly about the life lessons of effort, teamwork, and sportsmanship being our definitions of success. Below is some important information about our sports programs.
Participation
Saint Francis tries to keep as many students involved in our athletic programs as possible. Last year, approximately 1200 students participated in our athletic programs.
Some of our teams are what we call "non cut" sports. These programs (cross country, track, swimming, and wrestling) do not have a tryout period. As long as you show up every day and fulfill the team requirements, you will be part of the program. The rest of our programs have a 3 day tryout period after which the coaching staff will create the team roster. Freshman ONLY are allowed to try out for 2 "cut" sports in the same season. If you try out for one and do not make it, you will have two days to try out for another "cut" sport. A student who is not selected for a "cut" sport can always walk onto a "non cut" sport and be a part of that athletic program.
The school also greatly encourages participation in our athletic programs by being a part of a team as a manager, statistician, film crew, social media manager, or student trainer. There are many great ways to be involved!

Summer Opportunities
We are excited to invite incoming freshman students to our campus this summer for optional athletic sessions! While many sports programs are still determining their schedule for the summer, our Athletic Department created this google sheet full list to share these summer opportunities. We will continue to update this sheet as the information is confirmed.
Tryouts Dates for Fall Sports
