Sports & Recreation
Carleton may be better known for brains than brawn, but both get a workout here. It’s true that our Quiz Bowl team is a recent national championship winner, but so is our ultimate frisbee team. And in the last five years the cross country, golf, volleyball, basketball, swimming, tennis, and soccer teams have all appeared in national rankings.
