EDMOND, Okla. - With Oklahoma Christian Athletics' Day of Giving one week away, we take a look at just a few of the many student-athletes' lives who have been affected for the good by OC and, by extension, by our fans and supporters' faithful generosity. When you give to Oklahoma Christian, you are partnering with OC to help create these moments and experiences that will stick with these young men and women far beyond their collegiate years, as well as open windows of opportunity for future Eagles.



"I never imagined I would have the opportunity to play softball while also doing mission work. Through this experience, I've grown so much in my faith and have met incredible people along the way - something that wouldn't have been possible if God hadn't placed me at Oklahoma Christian." - Jill Dickson, Softball



"Here I found a home away from home, where God has placed incredible people in my life. I thank God for bringing me here and for the opportunity to be part of the soccer team. OC has earned a special place in my heart and has truly become a place where I've been able to grow spiritually, socially and personally." - Luis Alvis, Men's Soccer 



"During my journey at OC, I have found that this amazing place has been more than just playing sports; it's about growing as a person in a supportive community. The mentors I've found here have shaped my values and given me a strong foundation for the future." - Angelo Normand, Men's Track and Field



"I've built genuine relationships with people who have challenged me to grow - not just as a student-athlete, but also as a person. I am so blessed to be part of such a generous, supportive community that inspires me to aim higher in all that I do while strengthening my faith each day." - Sophie Bennett, Women's Basketball



"OC is my home away from home - not only a place to continue my athletic career but to stay close with the Lord and get a great education. OC has been such a blessing in my life and I have learned many new things and met great people along the way. I thank God for blessing me with the situation I'm in because I know it's all part of His plan." - Chacun Anderson II, Men's Basketball



"OC has been such a blessing in my life. It has helped me grow deeper in my relationship with Christ while teaching me how to live out my faith on and off the field. The friendships and community I've found through soccer and FCA have shaped me into a better teammate and person." - Ella Atkins, Women's Soccer



"Being able to pursue your sport collegiately in a faith-based environment is a privilege. Experiencing the ups and downs of golf within a godly community allows me to process this journey in a spiritually healthy way." - Tim Clark, Men's Golf



"This school has become a sanctuary for me. I'm grateful that God has allowed OC to be part of my life. Being in this environment has challenged me to become the best version of myself. I thank OC for helping me grow spiritually and as an individual." - Taylor Jackson, Women's Basketball



"Going to college had always been a dream of mine. Having the opportunity to come to OC was a gift from God and I will forever be thankful for this experience. I've not only grown as an athlete, but as a person and follower of Christ and I can't wait to keep living out what God has in store for me." - Noah Clark, Men's Basketball
