“Being part of AIV has grown me and my relationship with God… It’s helped me build a brotherhood rooted in Christ, stay grounded in my purpose, and lead with confidence through God’s strength.”
-Trent Tousana, Edgewood College Men's Basketball
“Athletes InterVarsity has helped my team and I learn that our identity is not in what we do on the ice or who we are as a player, it’s in who Jesus is!”
-Bailey Olson, University of Wisconsin-River Falls Hockey
