Mustang Rule: "R-Respect others, U-Unite, L-Lead by example, E-Excel!"

Community Service - Student-athletes are often role models for other students and younger children and are definitely representatives of Western Wyoming Community College. All teams are very involved in community service projects. Teams not competing will also help out with on campus duties in the athletic department such as concession stands for the games and matches and be a fan in the stand supporting their student athlete family.

We believe that community service is educationally and personally fulfilling for the athletes and for those they are helping.  We enjoy the visibility for teams, the department and the institution. 

Please contact our Athletic Department for more information; athletics@westernwyoming.edu

In the Classroom - Student-Athletes are expected to strive to earn a 3.0+ grade point average each semester,individually. Teams are also expected to earn a 3.0+ collectively as a unit, and further, it is the expectation and goal of the Mustang Athletic Department that the entire department with all student-athletes together, collectively earn a 3.0+.

All athletes have required study hours they must meet each week, and whether they are traveling to competitions or not, their academic responsibilities are a priority. 

We believe that this is imperative for success beyond Western. With this kind of a GPA, and attention to academics, when student-athletes leave Western, they are putting themselves in the best situations they can, whether they continue on to a four-year institution, or enter the workforce.

Impact Program:

We encourage our student-athletes to embrace the responsibility of making a positive impact on others.  We also want them to recognize when someone in their circle makes an impact on them. That is why we created the Impact Player Award program this year. Each student-athlete chooses one person on campus who they feel has significantly and positively impacted their success here at Western and recognizes them with a certificate and a t-shirt.
