Our athletic teams compete in the St. Louis Intercollegiate Athletic Conference (SLIAC), and since 1990, have won 32 SLIAC Championships, 19 SLIAC Tournament Championships and made 21 appearances in NCAA Division III National Tournaments.Success achieved in sports is also stressed in the classroom. Our student-athletes hold some of the highest GPAs in the school and academics are stressed as the priority at Fontbonne. We believe athletics and academics complement one another and help develop well-rounded young adults.

With an on-campus 2,000-seat arena for indoor sports - located in the newly renovated Dunham Student Activity Center (DSAC) - and a state of the art outdoor playing field just a few minutes away, students and other fans enthusiastically show their support for our athletic teams. Great times, good sportsmanship and outstanding effort combine for an exciting collegiate sporting environment.
