URBE Athletics

Welcome to URBE University Athletics — where academic excellence meets the spirit of competition.

Message from the Dean & Athletic Director



Dear URBE University Community,


It is with great excitement and pride that I announce the official launch of our URBE University Athletic Program for the 2025–2026 academic year.


This milestone marks a new chapter in our institution’s commitment to holistic student development, blending academic excellence with the values of teamwork, discipline, and perseverance that come through athletic participation. Our goal is to create a dynamic sports environment that not only fosters competitive spirit but also supports the educational and personal growth of our student-athletes.


We are building a program that reflects the strength and diversity of our community—offering opportunities for students to compete, grow, and represent URBE University with pride and integrity. This initiative will begin with select sports, supported by experienced coaches, dedicated staff, and state-of-the-art facilities designed to provide an exceptional athletic experience.


As we embark on this exciting journey, we invite you—our students, faculty, staff, alumni, and partners—to join us in building a program that will make history. Your support will be essential in shaping a culture of excellence on and off the field.


Together, we will write the first chapter of URBE Athletics and set a strong foundation for generations to come.


Go Tigers!


Dr. Raymond Lopez Medina

Dean & Athletic Director
