Utah State University Athletics

Utah State competes in NCAA Division I, meaning big-time college sports with athletic scholarships and serious competition. The Aggies field 12 varsity sports with 390 total athletes, representing just 1.9% of the 20,342-student body. Utah State distributes over $8.2 million in athletic scholarships across their programs. The school competes in the Mountain West Conference against regional rivals. The Aggies have a particularly strong basketball tradition, with their Spectrum arena known as one of the toughest venues in college basketball. Football also draws solid crowds during fall Saturdays. Utah State maintains heated rivalries with in-state schools University of Utah and Brigham Young University, though these matchups happen less frequently now due to conference realignment. The athletic programs benefit from strong community support in the small city of Logan.
