Varsity Athletics

Committed JSC student-athletes have the opportunity to participate in NCAA Division III athletics. We field 10 varsity teams – men's and women's basketball, men's and women's cross country, men's lacrosse, men's and women's soccer, women's softball, and men's and women's tennis – all of which compete in the North Atlantic Conference.

Johnson State athletics will expand its varsity athletic offerings in the fall of 2009 with the addition of men's golf and women's volleyball.

Support for Student-Athletes

While our teams strive for success on the court and field, we realize there is more to an athletic program than wins and losses. JSC takes a broader view, encouraging student-athletes to develop lasting friendships, maintain healthy lifestyles, and improve both as individuals and as teammates. In addition, a top priority is to help and encourage student-athletes reach their potential academically.

Outstanding Recreational Facilities

However, you don't need to be on a varsity team to enjoy an outstanding athletic and recreational experience at JSC. In addition to our nearly 30 intramural programs, students enjoy on-campus access to a range of athletics facilities the Student Health and Physical Education (SHAPE) Fitness Center (a 7,000-square-foot multi-use facility), eight miles of cross-country trails, a snowboard park, and an 18-hole disc golf course.
