Spring's arrived, and so is the latest Club Sports update! SCU currently has 21 active Club Sport teams that compete against universities at the local, regional, and national levels. Each month during the academic year, we ask teams to share updates on what they have been up to--though not every team will report each month.

If you weren't able to attend any Club Sport Home Games last quarter, there is still time to watch and support your fellow Broncos! Make sure to visit the bottom of this email for all the upcoming home games and their times. See you there--Go Broncos!

Hellooooo everyone, welcome back from break! Karate club is really springing into action early this quarter with our next tournament in Week 1! We’re competing in Yuba City. We’re excited to see students both sparring in kumite and performing kata. Those who aren’t competing are concentrating on perfecting foundational skills and more advanced kata for belt testing at the end of the quarter! If you have any questions reach out to our president Lily Green, ljgreen@scu.edu.

Over spring break we had some of our swimmers travel to Arizona for nationals. Our Men's 4 x 50 yard Freestyle relay ranked 14th in the nation and set a new team record time of 1:37.75. Our Women's 4 x 50 Medley relay set a new team record 2:06.71. Also for individual statistics, our very own president, Daniel Gustin, ranked 6th nationally in 50-yard Freestyle with a time of 20.76 seconds, which is also a swim club record. Our club treasurer, Will Tu, ranked 9th in the 100-yard Butterfly with a time of 50.38 seconds, also setting a new club record. Other club records that were also broken were by First-Year team member Aveed Gorji in the 50-yard and 100-yard Backstroke, with times of 25.05 and 52.67 seconds, respectively. Going forward we have a few more meets left of the year including a meet at UCLA. We are excited for this new quarter, and If you have any questions or are interested in joining the club swim team, please email our First-Year representatives, kbush@scu.edu and akerobyan@scu.edu.

The Women’s Club Volleyball team had an exciting and memorable tournament in Las Vegas over Spring Break, showcasing our hard work and growth this season, where we played well against teams we hadn’t faced before. We’re proud to be one of the top four teams in our league, earning a spot at League Champs last Sunday, where we competed in the semi-finals against Berkeley!
