Athletics
Waldorf College teams, nicknamed athletically as the Warriors, are part of the National Association of Intercollegiate Athletics (NAIA), primarily competing in the Midlands Collegiate Athletic Conference (MCAC), while its football team competes in the Midwest League of the Mid-States Football Association (MSFA). The Warriors formerly competed in the Midwest Collegiate Conference (MCC). Men's sports include baseball, basketball, bowling, cross country, football, golf, ice hockey, soccer and wrestling; while women's sports include basketball, bowling, cheerleading, cross country, golf, soccer, softball, volleyball and wrestling.
The Waldorf College Cheerleaders are a competitive squad recognized for all-female stunting routines. The college expanded athletics in 2010 by adding men's ice hockey and women's wrestling. The ice hockey began play during the 2011-12 academic year and plays an independent schedule of club programs, as the NAIA does not currently sponsor a championship for ice hockey. The program is coached by Brett Shelanski, former head coach at Minnesota Flying Aces junior A team. The college launched Iowa's first collegiate women's wrestling program in 2010.
