Dear Wolf Pack Student-Athlete,

Welcome to Loyola University New Orleans and to the Wolf Pack family! You are now part of a tradition that extends far beyond wins and losses. A tradition grounded in Jesuit values and a commitment to excellence in all that we do.

As a Jesuit institution, Loyola challenges each of us to pursue magis. To strive for “the more,” not in terms of doing more, but in doing what truly matters with greater purpose and depth. As a student-athlete, that means bringing your best self to the classroom, competition, and your community. It means competing with integrity, serving others with generosity, and reflecting on how your experiences here are shaping you as a person and a leader.

The Jesuits teach that education is about the formation of the whole person—mind, body, and spirit. Athletics plays an important role in that formation. Through teamwork, discipline, and perseverance, you will learn lessons that last long after your final competition . At Loyola, success is measured not only by your performance, but by how you treat others, how you grow through challenges, and how you use your gifts to make a difference in the world.

At the heart of Jesuit education is cura personalis (“care for the whole person”). Your coaches, faculty, and staff are committed to supporting you not only as an athlete, but as a student, teammate, and individual with unique gifts and potential. Loyola Athletics is a place where your growth, well-being, and formation matter as much as your performance.

As you begin or continue your journey with the Wolf Pack, remember that you are part of something bigger—a community united by faith, service, and a shared pursuit of excellence. We are proud of you, and we look forward to walking with you every step of the way.

Welcome to Loyola. Welcome to the Pack.

Geaux Wolf Pack!
