Athletics

Welcome to MCC Athletics!

At MCC, we are dedicated to providing you with a well-rounded college experience. As a student athlete you can gain valuable skills and experiences that will benefit you on and off of the field.

MCC Athletics provides you with opportunities to engage in a number of competitive and recreational sports. Choose from:

  • Club and intramural sports teams
  • One-on-one or small group recreation pick-up games

By participating in MCC Athletics (Go Nighthawks!), you can gain valuable skills and experiences that will benefit you, and your career path, both on and off the field. 

Club Sports

MCC offers several club sports like Women’s Volleyball, Men’s Basketball and eSports for both men and women. These sports have been carefully selected based on the interests and preferences of our student body. We encourage you to join one or more of these clubs and be a part of our growing Nighthawks athletic community.

Intramural and Recreational Sports

If you want to start your own intramural league or team, you can do so by contacting Aileen Clay, Director of Student Life. Creating an intramural league or team  enables you to play organized games and compete against one another in a structured manner.

You are also free to play pickup games for fun! You can see when the MPR is scheduled on the TV monitor in the Student Pit area. Outside of those reserved hours, the MPR is open and available for your recreational use.

Competition with Neighboring Colleges

As a club sports participant you may have the opportunity to compete against other colleges in the surrounding area. This fosters healthy competition and provides the chance for you to showcase your skills and represent MCC. This helps create a sense of camaraderie among our athletes and fosters strong bonds within the college community.
