Athletics at Loyola

Basketball players pose with cheerleaders at the pow-wow bonfire to kick off their 1962-1963 championship season.

From football and baseball at St. Ignatius College to the 1963 NCAA Champion basketball team, athletics has a long history at Loyola University Chicago. Whether cheered on by a hobo or a wolf, Rambler student-athletes have been challenged by their university to be "the brightest and the best" in physical fitness, academic development, religious commitment, and moral character.
