Tell us about the sports scene on campus.

Sports teams become really close with each other due to the amount of time they spend together in practice and traveling to games, tournaments, etc. There is a hierarchy within the Conn sports world - varsity sits at the top, then club and finally intramural. Having played a club sport for four years, I can attest that there are some club sports that are more serious than others, however you can find competitive play at the club level for ultimate, rugby and hockey. Additionally, there is a lack of campus spirit for athletic teams because we lack a football team and most of our teams play across the highway from campus.
