What is the relationship between athletics and academics?
load which our athletes are faced with and we emphasize that academics come first; you are here for your education. This is why we keep our practices short, but intense. We want our players to show up on time, work hard, and leave on time so they can be involved in other aspects of college life. Our athletes at Allegheny typically have a higher GPA than the general student body because they learn to manage their time better and they have full time coaches monitoring their classroom performance.
