Niagara University Athletics

Why Niagara?
“I chose Niagara because it is the perfect place to pursue both my athletic and academic goals. The campus size and community feel were exactly what I was looking for in a university. Niagara University helped my brother and I reach our goal to play NCAA D1 soccer together and after seeing the quality of the soccer program and the direction it is heading in, I knew Niagara was the best fit for me.”
