WeathersPoon GymnasiumThe home to Meredith’s basketball and volleyball teams. The facility
provides up-close seating for over 500 spectators. The complex also
includes locker rooms, athletics offices, a training room, a fitness
center, a 5,000 square-foot dance studio and a six-lane, indoor
swimming pool.
meredith athletic Field and track comPlexThe home to Meredith’s soccer and cross country teams. The complex
includes a lighted competition level track, a FieldTurf artificial playing
surface capable of supporting soccer and lacrosse games and a stor-
age facility. Future phases of the project will include a grandstand,
hospitality areas, support facilities, restrooms, brick arcade and locker
rooms. The cross country team uses the complex as well as the Col-
lege’s 225-acre campus and the Reedy Creek Greenway.
meredith soFtball comPlexThe home of Meredith softball has recently undergone several
renovations. The addition of irrigation to the Bermuda field and
infield improvements have stepped up the playing conditions to
make it one of the best fields in the area. New dugouts have also
been completed to increase comfort for the players and enhance
the game atmosphere.
meredith tennis comPlexThe home of the Meredith tennis program includes six lighted tennis
courts with windscreen. Over the summer of 2007, the courts were
resurfaced with a new color scheme—a “US Open Blue” inner court
surrounded by a green outer court. This new color scheme will help to
heighten the visibility of the ball for players and fans.

meredith colleGe athletics historyAthletics at Meredith
College began in
1904 with the advent
of Meredith’s Athletic
Association. The first
competitive games
against other schools
were held in 1904 with two games against St. Mary’s College. In the
early years, Meredith athletic activities included swimming, soccer,
horseback riding, tennis, baseball, basketball, golf, football and field
hockey. The first events were primarily inter-class competitions. In
1937, Meredith became a part of the United States Conference.
In 1944, Meredith’s freshman-sophomore basketball team
defeated the team from what is now Peace College, marking the
beginning of a cross-town rivalry between the two Raleigh women’s
colleges. In 1952, the basketball team and the field hockey team
pulled out impressive victories against the University of North
Carolina and Duke.
In 1970, Meredith athletics took on a new life with the completion
of Weatherspoon Gymnasium. Volleyball and tennis saw their first
winning seasons during the 1970s. In 1980, the golf team won the
NCAIAW state championship while the tennis team took the confer-
ence title. The golf team finished second in the AIAW Division III
national tournament in 1981, in Meredith’s first bid for a national
championship. Softball was added as a varsity sport during the
1985-86 academic year. The most recent varsity sports to be
added were soccer in 1993 and cross country in 2005.
In recent years at Meredith, there has been an increase in the com-
petitiveness of the athletics programs on a regional and national level
in Division III. The program has had seven NCAA tournament bids
across three different sports since 2001 (basketball 2001, 2003;
tennis 2003, 2007, 2009; and soccer 2007, 2008). In 2007, Mer-
edith’s athletics identity became the “Avenging Angels” to emphasize
the prowess of Meredith athletes. The 2007-08 season marked the
first year of competition in the
USA South Athletic Confer-
ence. Meredith was the first
single gender institution to
win a conference title with
both tennis and soccer tour-
nament wins in 2008-09. The
soccer team added a regular
season title in 2009.
meredith colleGe athletics ProGramthe division iii exPerience
Meredith athletics teams participate in Division III of the National
Collegiate Athletic Association. Meredith College fully supports
the Division III experience that allows the student athlete to enjoy
competitive sports and other activities throughout their college years.
Division III athletics offers student-athletes the opportunity to become
well-rounded individuals who successfully integrate athletics and
academics while experiencing all aspects of college life. Division III
athletics feature athletes who can receive only academic financial
assistance and athletics departments that are staffed and funded like
any other department in the College.
academics
Meredith College’s commitment to academics is exemplified by its
athletics teams. Each year, the USA South Athletic Conference recog-
nizes its student-athletes’ hard work in the classroom by naming an
Academic All-Conference team. A student-athlete must have earned
a 3.0 GPA in each of the two semesters of a given year to be eligible.
The athletics department also offers a special Athletics Director’s
List that recognizes the athletes that receive a 3.5 each of the two
semesters. During the 2010-11 season, 45.8% of Meredith’s student
athletes finished with a 3.0 or higher and 18.8% received the Athlet-
ics Director’s award with a 3.5 or higher.
medical services
In addition to the academic and fitness programs available, the
athletic training staff provides excellent care for participants. The
athletic training support staff consists of head athletic trainer, Sharon
Malley, student athletic trainers from the University of North Carolina
and on-call physicians. Some of the services and equipment provided
in the Weatherspoon Gymnasium include a whirlpool, hydrocollator,
ultrasound, injury ice and electrical stimulation. Meredith College
serves as a clinical site for the UNC-Chapel Hill Undergraduate Ath-
letic Training Program.
community service
Members from each team are elected to the Student Athlete
Advisory Committee that organizes support for each sport and also
coordinates community service. Past volunteer work includes Special
Olympics of Wake County, Habitat for Humanity, Service Raleigh,
and the USA South Athletic Conference’s Cans Across the Confer-
ence and Pennies for a Purpose.
