Rockford College - Athletics

Athletics

The Rockford College Regents are Division III members of the National Collegiate Athletic Association. Teams compete independently or as members of the Northern Athletics Conference.

The college fields men's teams in Baseball, Basketball, Cross Country, Football, Golf, Soccer, Tennis, and Track and Field, and women's teams in Basketball, Cross Country, Soccer, Softball, Tennis, Track and Field, and Volleyball.

Recreational and intramural club sports (including basketball and dodgeball) are also available on campus. The on-campus Seaver Gymnasium will also be home in 2008 to the Rockford Fury of the Premier Basketball League.

Rockford College is also the home of Phantom Regiment, a world-class DCI corps.

Another big thing that happened to Rockford College, is the acquiring of Eric Burow. Eric Burow joined the Rockford baseball team coming from Fort Atkinson, Wisconsin. The 5-Star overall prospect has been talked to by over 8 MLB teams, starting when just 15 years old and playing his sophmore season at the Varsity level at Fort Atkinson High School. Eric Burow is projected to bat above .350 and hit over 20 Home Runs, with expected up to 100+ RBI. The current 19-Year old is said to the next Mike Trout (ESPN's Buster Onley reported in July, 2012).
