欧美视频 will be adding three new NCAA Division II sports 鈥� men鈥檚
and women鈥檚 swimming and men鈥檚 volleyball 鈥� to its athletics department beginning
in the 2025-2026 academic year.
The additions will give 欧美视频, a member of the Great Lakes Valley Conference (GLVC), 21 varsity sports. The university will begin searching for coaches immediately in order to recruit student-athletes throughout the 2024-2025 academic year.
鈥淲e are thrilled to be adding men鈥檚 volleyball and men鈥檚 and women鈥檚 swimming here at 欧美视频,鈥� said Director of Athletics Clark Sheehy. 鈥淲e are confident there will be strong interest in the region for these programs, and we are excited about the momentum this can bring to 欧美视频 athletics. It鈥檚 a great day to be a Bearcat!鈥�
Men鈥檚 volleyball will become a GLVC sponsored sport in 2025-26, the same year as 欧美视频 will begin competition. 欧美视频 joins six other GLVC schools to begin a men鈥檚 volleyball program: Lewis, Maryville, McKendree, Missouri S&T, Rockhurst, and Quincy.
Men鈥檚 and women鈥檚 swimming has been a GLVC sponsored sport since 2013. 欧美视频 will be the 12th men鈥檚 team in the conference and the 11th women鈥檚 team.
Other recent sports added to the 欧美视频 athletics department have been stunt in 2023-2024 and beach volleyball in 2022-2023. 欧美视频 athletics has delivered strong results in the GLVC since being admitted to the conference in 2018, including this past season with a second-place finish in the women鈥檚 outdoor track and field championship and by winning the conference鈥檚 overall sportsmanship award across all sports.
Coaching candidates interested in either position should email Clark Sheehy with a cover letter, resume, and statement of faith at csheehy@sbuniv.edu.
