"Athletics have always been an important part of the St. Mary's experience. Every student has the opportunity to participate in a variety of athletic activities ranging from physical education classes to competitive varsity sports."

- St. Mary's Athletic Director Anna Maria Lopez '78.

At St. Mary's, teamwork, leadership, personal growth, and social opportunities are encouraged both on and off the playing fields.

St. Mary's Academy views athletics as an extension of the classroom where students learn the values of hard work, determination, and cooperation, while developing their talents as athletes.

As a member of the Oregon School Activities Association (OSAA), St. Mary's competes in nine 6A level sports — cross country, soccer, volleyball, basketball, swimming, golf, softball, tennis, and track & field — in the Mt. Hood Conference. St. Mary's also competes in lacrosse under the auspices of the Oregon Girls' Lacrosse Association. Additionally, two Blues teams compete in nordic and alpine skiing at the club level under the guidelines of the Oregon Interscholastic Ski Racing Association (OISRA).

St. Mary's Academy has won 19 OSAA state championships in five different sports. In addition, the Blues have won four academic state titles, twice winning the OSAA POWERADE Scholar Athlete Award for having the highest percentage of graduating seniors earning a 3.50 cumulative GPA and a varsity letter in a 6A OSAA sanctioned sport. At the conference level, St. Mary's teams have earned 63 titles, 41 as members of the Metro League and 22 in the Mt. Hood Conference, and 2 OGLA State Titles.

Many of the state's finest female athletes developed their skills while at St. Mary's. The all-female environment allows girls to thrive in the spirit of competition. Many former St. Mary's student-athletes are now coaches and share the pride, inspiration, and commitment to the winning history of the school.
