PUC Life Now
Spiritual Life
From small-group dialogue to campus church services to solitary prayer, there are many ways for faith to grow.
Meet Kelsey Drake
It’s a long trek from the main campus to the maze of trails at the top of the hill. That’s just one of the reasons why senior Kelsey Drake wouldn’t live anywhere else on campus besides McReynolds Hall.
Sports & Athletics
Alongside PUC's mental endeavors and spiritual community, we have always worked to promote healthy living. Our gymnasium, known officially as Pacific Auditorium but more endearingly called "The Covered Wagon," stays busy with students playing sports in formal and informal groups. The fitness center and weight room, climbing wall, pool, track, and tennis courts are used for both classes and independent recreation. From physical fitness classes to our many popular intramurals to league sport teams, there is something for every student.
Mountain Bike Races
The Napa Valley Dirt Classic in April and the Howell Mountain Challenge in August welcome hundreds of mountain bikers to race on PUC's back trails each year.
PUC Rec: The Intramural Program
A busy intramural schedule each quarter means students, faculty and staff can get involved playing everything from ultimate Frisbee to floor hockey. PUC Rec offers team schedules, sports-talk podcasts, and photo galleries.
Pioneer Athletics
Our Pioneers teams in mens and womens basketball and cross country, mens soccer, and womens volleyball play in the California Pacific Conference, a division of the National Association for Intercollegiate Athletics.
