ABOUT
EAGLE
ATHLETICS
The Athletic Program at Daniel
Webster College provides its student-athletes an opportunity to bring out
their best through competition. It is the belief of the College
that a well-rounded experience includes more than just a classroom
education.
DWC coaches mentor their
student-athletes far beyond the playing fields and courts. Under
their guidance, Eagle student-athletes gain valuable experience in
teamwork, leadership, self-discipline and sportsmanship. It is an
experience that creates a bond between coaches and student-athletes that
frequently becomes the basis for lifelong friendships.
The Eagles, a charter member of the
New England Collegiate Conference (NECC), are also members of the Eastern
Collegiate Athletic Conference (ECAC).
Eagles men's lacrosse competes as an independent.
DWC also sponsors ice hockey as a non-NCAA sponsored sport. Open to both men and women,
hockey competes in the American
Collegiate Hockey Association (ACHA).
The
New England Collegiate Conference
Established May 31, 2007, the NECC is comprised of nine colleges and universities
from the region and will sponsor 11 championship sports for men and
women beginning in the fall of 2008.
