Athletics at Pacific

Pacific students work hard and they play hard. About 50 percent of students participate in either varsity, intramural, or club sports, and many more enjoy cheering on the Boxers against their rivals. The Boxers compete in the Northwest Conference (NWC), an NCAA Division III league that includes nearby schools such as Lewis & Clark College, Linfield College, and Willamette University.

Student-athletes who attend Pacific value a good education, but they also want the satisfaction of contributing to a competitive team sport. "I have a great coach and my closest friends are on the team," says Ryan Stanley, a political science major who is also a first team All-Northwest Conference soccer player for the Boxers.

Complete Facilities

Most of Pacific's athletic pursuits take place in the Pacific Athletic Center (PAC), a large complex that includes gymnasiums, offices, racquetball and handball course, locker room, and a weight room. The spacious gymnasium seats 2,500 and it can get pretty loud, especially when the Boxers are winning!

The renovation of the PAC in 2000 added a 5,000 square foot fitness center, laboratories and offices for the exercise science program.
