IN HIS OWN WORDS...

Why IWU...

I chose IWU because of the culture of the team. I knew it would be a place where I could grow spiritually and athletically. It felt like home the first time I stepped on campus and was with the coaches and players.  

IAm3 is...

Iam3rd is a lifestyle. It means to put God first, others second, and yourself third. To me, it is a daily practice to live out Mark 12:30-31. As a Christian, I am called to be a humble servant like Jesus was on the cross. 

Fearless is...

Fearless is the ability to live life without being afraid to fail. A fearless person has an identity from the Lord with a sense of freedom. Being fearless is living life with nothing to prove because of what Jesus already did for us. 

The IWU coaching staff is...

The coaching staff is amazing. They are influential leaders to us players, role models who show us how to be spirit-led, and the embodiment of the IAM3rd lifestyle. I am blessed to have coaches like them.
