About Howard University Athletics

Mission Statement

Sports has the power to change the world. It has the power to inspire, the power to unite people in a way that little else does. It speaks to youth in a language they understand. Sports can create hope, where there was once only despair. It is more powerful than governments in breaking down racial barriers. It laughs in the face of all types of discrimination. - Nelson Mandela (2011)

The Howard University Department of Intercollegiate Athletics seeks to attract and cultivate student-athletes who reflect Howard's core mission to develop leaders who will change the world. Our student-athletes pursue excellence in the classroom, on the field of play and in the community. Our Coaches and administrators reinforce these values by instilling the importance of leadership, integrity, discipline, sportsmanship and teamwork.
