Join Us

Warren Wilson athletic teams welcome all interested student-athletes regardless of level or experience.

Consider, for example, our Cycling team. The year they won the national championship, the team featured two freshmen riders with contrasting backgrounds. Freshmen Paul Wright came to Warren Wilson from New Zealand as a world-class rider. On the other end of the spectrum was Sophie Allen, who had never ridden a mountain bike before she joined the team in August. She got herself to a place where she could race for a national team just two and a half months later.

If you’re ready to contribute, we’re ready to meet you.

Owl Statue - Mascot

Our Mascot

At Warren Wilson, our mascot is the Owls. It’s why you hear the cheer “hootie hoo” across campus, why our annual scholarship event is called a “Parliament”, and why owl art is so widely displayed across campus.

Staying Fit

In addition to walking our hilly campus and farm-to-table dining, you’ll stay fit with free classes and access to our fitness center, located in Devries Athletic Center. Our Athletic Center includes:

  • a 10,902 square foot gymnasium;
  • a complete weight-fitness room;
  • spin bikes, rowing machines and treadmills in our cardio room.
