Marian Championships
We Have Set this Place Apart...
Educating the whole person is what sets Marian apart from other high schools. As an extension of the academic program of Marian High School, the athletic program strives to contribute to the development of mature, competent, and caring Christian women through participation in organized sports. Athletics provide opportunities for the development of discipline, self-control, confidence, perseverance, teamwork, and leadership skills.
Marian athletics achieves this by fielding varsity teams in 18 interscholastic sports. All the teams strive for excellence. Many programs have junior varsity teams to allow additional participation. Marian even have freshmen or junior varsity B teams to give additional opportunities for development. Some sports have limited team size while others are “no-cut” sports with no limits on participants. Each continues the tradition of empower, explore, and excel at Marian.
Supplementing the interscholastic program is an intramural program in several sports. This allows all the opportunity to participate in a co-curricular activity.
Marian sportswomen are well-recognized in the Catholic High School League and the Michigan High School Athletic Association.
