The 2026-27 school year has finally started here at UWSP, and we can’t get enough of everything that campus has to offer! With the new fall semester, we are seeing both new and returning students at UWSP, trying to adjust to their new schedules, join clubs, and get used to their new home away from home. I have found out a great way to spend some extra time is to try to make it a priority to meet new people and have fun at campus events. Some of the main campus events I love attending are the many fall sporting events. They are a great way to create fun lifelong memories with friends!
UWSP has a diverse assortment of athletic teams that train vigorously throughout the year to compete against other teams in their respective divisions. During the fall season, UWSP’s football, men’s and women’s soccer, men’s and women’s tennis, men’s and women’s golf, cross country, and women’s volleyball teams all compete, giving the students of UWSP a variety of different sporting events that they can attend all week long.
Plenty of events are happening in Stevens Point throughout the first couple of days here on campus that you do not want to miss out on!
