Over the years, Meredith College has earned a notable reputation for its commitment to quality in academics and athletics. Our goal is to maintain that level of quality while expanding and enhancing opportunities for our student-athletes.
Meredith College competes in 11 varsity sports in NCAA Division III and is a member of the USA South Athletic Conference. The Avenging Angels are a consistent presence in the women’s division of the USA South Presidents Cup competition, awarded to the league’s top overall athletic program each year. Since 2013, the Avenging Angels have been in the top two and captured first place for the 2014-15 school year.
Our student-athletes have not only made their mark on Meredith College and in the USA South, but also in the world with the same spirit, dedication, and pride in achieving their personal best that marked their years on the field and in the classroom. Yesterday’s student-athletes are today’s authors, attorneys, health care professionals, business women, engineers, mothers, volunteers, designers, and more.
Strong athletic programs are built from within, but the strongest programs are supported both internally and externally. Founded in 2015, the Avenging Angels Club continues to grow each year. As a Club member, you will play a vital role in our success by providing financial assistance to the athletics department above the normal operating budget and promoting excellence of each Meredith sports program. Join us today.
The Avenging Angels Club contributes to the success of the Meredith College intercollegiate athletics program. The Club was established to encourage alumnae, family, and friends to invest in the future of Avenging Angels Athletics.

When Meredith College was chartered in 1891, the college inaugurated a culture of excellence in women’s higher education. In our 129th year, Meredith now holds the esteem of being the largest private women’s college in the South, and one of the most competitive players in the USA South Conference.
Rich, educational opportunities coupled with a strong, athletic NCAA Division III program enables Meredith student-athletes to gain skills beyond the scope of the classroom walls. Our student-athletes graduate with confidence, discipline, leadership, and self-motivation. The game has taught them to take risks, feel empowered, and have the courage to succeed at a high pressure level.
Meredith Athletics invites you to join our Partnerships Initiative which provides opportunities for select corporations and organizations to increase their visibility to Meredith students-athletes and alumnae. We offer you the chance to share in Meredith’s commitment to empowering young women to be confident in their pursuit of academic and athletic achievements.
We are empowering women every day to become stronger and we need your support.
Meredith Athletics empowers each athlete to achieve her goals on the court and field as well as in the classroom. We encourage our students to support the community in which their education is rooted, to give back to a community that has given to them a chance to foster and grow in athleticism and academia. To this point, we hope to showcase those organizations on our campus who believe in the empowerment of women and wish to move them into successful careers upon graduation.
