“Gonzaga sponsors several races for charity, like the Bulldog Run, and encourages students to participate in Hoopfest, the largest 3-on-3 basketball tournament in the world. Intramural sports are extremely popular. To put things into perspective: We only have about 4,000 students, but this year’s intramural basketball tournament drew about 1,200 student players. Fitness is a part of my daily life, so it doesn’t seem like a balancing act. Parties happen. Drinking happens (a lot). But staying in shape happens, as well, and it’s almost as fun. Almost.” —Greg Yandl, TK class
