Co-Curricular Athletics

Saint Thomas Academy is a member of the Classic Suburban Conference and participates in all 14 Minnesota State High School League sports. More than 90% of students participate in co-curricular athletics and/or activities.

Athletic facilities include the Gerry Brown '58 Stadium with a new artificial turf field for football and soccer, the newly-resurfaced William J. Culbertson track, a hockey arena, a baseball diamond, an air-supported dome, two practice fields, a gymnasium, and an indoor swimming pool. Athletics have always played an important part of the co-curricular activities of the institution. From its early days, the Academy has participated in intramural and interscholastic competition. Many conference, regional, district and state championships have been won over the years. See the sidebar to the left for a list of state championships teams.

Saint Thomas Academy's co-curricular athletic program is designed to meet the needs and foster the interests of all students. It is part of the school's philosophy to involve students in activities beyond the classroom. Participation contributes to an espirit de corps and provides more avenues for individuals to achieve excellence.

For some athletics, students must meet specific criteria, such as high academic standing. For others, students must meet more general criteria. In no case may a student continue in athletics when such activity impedes his studies or proves detrimental to him in other ways. All athletics have faculty or other adult coach.
