Hey!

I’m a current frosh at Oxy, so if you have any other questions just let me know. Oxy Athletics are pretty well supported, even though we are a D3 school. For the few football games I attended, the stands were full and the crowd cheering. I’m not sure about the tennis team, but I do have friends on the ultimate frisbee, lacrosse, and rugby teams and from what it sounds like they always have people cheering them on at their games!

I was also supposed to be on the swim team, but had to quit due to a shoulder injury. The time commitment was pretty significant (morning weights four days a week, practice Monday-Saturday, and weekly yoga) so the program was rigorous. Don’t let that scare you, though! All of my friends who play sports here love it.

Hope that helped!
