Ecclesia College Athletics

Ecclesia competes in the USCAA, a small-college division that emphasizes character development alongside competition. The Royals field teams in six varsity sports with 102 total athletes. That means roughly 77% of students participate in athletics, creating an environment where nearly everyone either plays a sport or knows someone who does. The college awards $360,075 in athletic scholarships across all programs. With only 132 students total, games feel more like family gatherings than major sporting events. The intimate setting means coaches know every player personally. USCAA schools typically focus on giving student-athletes opportunities to compete while maintaining academic priorities. Most games draw small but enthusiastic crowds of fellow students, faculty, and local supporters who appreciate the dedication these young athletes bring to both competition and their faith journey.
