I chose St. Catherine because: for the atmosphere that surround the campus. Everyone here is pushing to be the best they can in the classroom, athletics, and in their every day life. Also making it a point to bring along those that surround them.
I'm proud to be a Wildcat because:
St. Kate’s is all about building character and a well rounded person. The athletic department is going to push you to be the best on and off the court.
What do you enjoy most about being a student-athlete at St. Catherine University?
The thrill of competing at a high level and feeling like I am apart of something great.
