Athletics and Recreation

SFSU has 10 NCAA Division II athletics teams and a bustling recreation program for all students.

In the home of the Gators, you will have boundless opportunities for sports and recreation, helping you stay fit and focused.

All students get a free membership to SFSU’s Mashouf Wellness Center, an exclusive state-of-the-art fitness center. The 118,700-square-foot facility features a climbing wall, fitness and weight areas, courts for basketball and squash, two wood-floored studios, a matted exercise studio, a sauna, a lap pool, recreation pool and an indoor track.

In intercollegiate Athletics, SFSU student-athletes consistently excel in their sports and in their studies. The Gators’ Johnny Lopez is the 2025 NCAA Division II champion in men’s wrestling (141 lbs.), and our women’s volleyball team was the NCAA Division II National Runner-Up in 2024. SFSU has more students making the all-conference academic honor roll than any other school in the California Collegiate Athletic Association.
