Pacific University would not have handball if it weren't for Coach Mike Steele (also the president of the United States Handball Association). He started this program and he is the reason we have such a strong reputation throughout the handball community-- among many things, Pacific is known for having the best referees of any school around. This year's collegiate tournament consists of roughly 300 players (including 60 from Ireland) from 50 schools. Pacific usually finishes in the top 4 teams in NCAA Division I. Boxers have attended the tournament since 1980, producing 18 national champions and 2 All-Americans since 1985. There are over 240 alumni who have played handball at Pacific.
It's kind of a legacy. So come play handball...
