Each October we celebrate coaches across the country as part of National Coaches Day on October 6th. National Coaches Day is a time we honor the committed coaches at Concordia University Texas who have had a significant impact on the lives of the athletes they have coached. On National Coaches Day, we take this opportunity to recognize the extraordinary contributions made by these role models who not only convey the fundamentals of their sport but also motivate their student-athletes and foster a strong feeling of camaraderie within the athletics department.

Athletic Excellence at Concordia Texas

Concordia Texas Athletics is more than just a collection of teams; it is a tight-knit community where athletes discover not only teammates but also mentors and lifetime friends. The dedicated coaches who lead and guide their players both on and off the field cultivate and strengthen this sense of unity.
