Dare to be GreatLehigh University Athletics Logo of a Hawk and "L"

Lehigh student-athletes are future makers in the classroom and on the field. When teams break records, make the playoffs, and win championships, they boost Lehigh’s reputation and make us proud. Your philanthropy fuels their excellence and gives the university the resources to develop talented leaders who will go on to solve some of the world’s most pressing challenges.

At a time when college athletics is navigating challenges like the transfer portal and “name-image-likeness,” we must recruit and retain exceptional athletes, as well as coaches and staff if we are to be truly exceptional. The time is right to step up for our teams.

With your support:

  • We will offer every Lehigh student an athletics experience deeply integrated into their education and development.
  • We will help our students become champions by revitalizing the spaces, programs, and training regimens that prepare them to excel.
  • We will position Athletics as a hub within Lehigh’s research and innovation ecosystem. The groundbreaking Center for Peak Performance will unite training, sports medicine, nutrition, mental wellness, leadership development, and research under one roof.
