Rockford College Athletics

The true measure of a champion. At Rockford, it’s not gauged in points scored. Our student-athletes prove themselves in the classroom first, where it counts. They’re frequently named Academic All-Americans and are found on academic honor rolls at the conference, regional, and national levels.

Regent athletics provides a positive co-educational experience through athletic competition.  Rockford College student-athletes not only enjoy athletic achievement, but are also enriched academically and get opportunities for personal development and leadership.   We also believe that it’s important for our student-athletes to be involved, be it on campus, in the community or both. Our trophy case may reflect an impressive degree of success. But for our student-athletes, the degrees that truly matter are awarded on graduation day.
