Drake University student-athletes experience a model of intercollegiate athletics that is truly integrated into the fabric of the University. Student-athletes from 18 sports pursue degrees from all six colleges at Drake. The young men and women you witness in competition are also leaders in campus life and their community. Student-athletes are represented in Student Senate, Greek Life and various other student organizations. They perfrom hundreds of hours of community service for such worthy causes as Habitat for Humanity and Meals from the Heartland and regularly visit local schools and Blanks Children's Hospital.
