Go Big Blue: Spartan Athletics at M State

As a member of the National Junior College Athletic Association, M State offers women’s intercollegiate volleyball, golf, softball, and basketball, and men’s intercollegiate football, golf, baseball, and basketball. M State Fergus Falls also offers bowling, basketball, soccer, volleyball, and ping-pong through the intramural program.

With a beautiful, inviting campus and access to such stunning sports venues like Pebble Lake Golf Course, Spartan Athletics and team sports at M State Fergus Falls offer exciting opportunities and entertainment for players and spectators. In the college’s fifty+ year history, Spartans have traveled all over the state and country and participated in state tournaments, conference and national championships. In fact, the Spartans have qualified for more national tournament trips in basketball than any other college in the Minnesota College Athletic Conference. The Spartan golfers recently won their fourth consecutive Region XIII and MCAC Championships. Go Big Blue!

Our full-time Spartan coaches focus on maintaining high academics, so our excellent students will be excellent athletes. They aim to have their athletes involved in the community through campus student senate, intramural games, and volunteer programs such as Spartan Buddy Basketball Program, Special Olympics, and Youth Sports Events. In fact, Spartan athletes and coaches were recently recognized at the 2015 All Sports Banquet, and an overwhelming majority were stars on the field, in the classroom, and in the community.

Coaches also encourage Spartan values and qualities that M State students can carry onward as they explore career opportunities or transfer to four-year schools and athletics programs. Such qualities include strong moral character, great work ethic, a winner’s attitude, athletic ability, belief in teamwork, a strong desire to grow and develop, and a great spirit of fun and enthusiasm.

Our coaches have built a legacy on training athletic excellence with an eye towards tradition. We have had athletes who perform and eventually have kids which attend M State to follow in the footsteps of their parents- how exciting is that?

At M State Fergus Falls, Spartan athletes shine big and bright on and off the field. Get more information on the Spartan Athletics program along with information on team sport rosters, news items, coaches, and schedules on our sports page.
