"Mens sana in corpore sano: a healthy mind in a healthy body." - Roman motto


We understand the importance of physical development in a young man's education. Health and physical education include personal fitness, an active outdoor sports program, and competitive athletics.

Subiaco has a strong tradition in competitive athletics and we take pride in our many victories. We believe that the lessons learned on the playing fields do translate to the classroom and to life. While we always put academics first, we are no less committed to excellence in the sports arena. We appreciate the positive effects team sports have on a young man's self-esteem. Our interscholastic competitive athletic programs are an outgrowth of the emphasis on fitness, skill-building and cooperative teamwork. Varsity teams compete with area division 4-AAA clubs in football, cross-country, basketball, golf, tennis, track, soccer and baseball. Because of the school's size, each student has the ability to participate in one or more of the varsity teams.

Our expansive sports facilities include an outdoor swimming pool, numerous tennis courts, soccer, baseball, track and football fields, and a field-house for volleyball and basketball with an all-weather facility ideal for team practice and recreation during inclement weather.

Participation in the athletic programs is high and encouraged. Our coaches, all of whom are members of the academic faculty, foster personal interaction, stress the importance of academics, and are providers of careful instruction. They exemplify the positive role models necessary for a wellrounded educational experience.

At Subiaco, athletics is more than winning for the sake of winning, it's about physical and moral growth through the discipline and challenge of the pursuit of excellence.
