Loras College Athletics

Why Loras: “I came to Loras because it was a small school that was close to home that had a good program in what I wanted to major in. The coaching staff was also very helpful in my selection process.”

What it means to be a Duhawk: “A Duhawk is someone who will go out of his or her way for the betterment of others.”

Favorite memory at Loras: “My favorite part would be giving tours to prospective students and then seeing them on campus the following year as Loras students. To be able to have an impact on someones college decision and have them come to Loras is a great feeling!”
