LCA ATHLETICS
In All That You Do
We strive to show excellence in everything, as God calls us to do in Colossians 3:23, "Whatever you do, work at it with all your heart, as working for the Lord, not for human masters." And so it is with LCA Athletics. Our staff and coaches work very hard every day to create the best possible atmosphere for our student-athletes. Our plan for success includes three elements: Spirituality, Coaches, and Facilities.
Mission
LCA Athletics exists to provide coaches and students with opportunities to glorify Christ with the talents and abilities God has given them.
Vision
To create and sustain a Christ-centered culture that produces transformational athletic and educational experiences for our students.
Core Values
- CHARACTER - We have to be people with right hearts- in tune with the leading of the Holy Spirit. The Lord requires us act justly, to love kindness and to walk humbly with God (Micah 6:8). We are called to represent Christ in all we do.
- INTEGRITY - We are to have knowledge of the rules and function within those boundaries. God defines it biblically and commands us to aim at what is honorable in the sight of God and man (2 Corinthians 8:21). We are to do the right thing, the right way, for the right reasons.
- DISCIPLINE - We are called to a life of discipline. Discipline in our faith walk to pursue knowledge of Christ through the Word as well as discipline in sport to maximize the athletic abilities of our young people. We know that in the moment all discipline seems painful rather than pleasant, but later yields the peaceful fruit of righteousness to those who have been trained by it (Hebrews 12:11). We will commit to the process and do what we want to do the way we should do it.
STEWARDSHIP - Our culture is fast becoming one of takers-not givers. The Bible tells us “to whom much is given, much is required (Luke 12:48). We will work to develop sacrificial leaders- sacrificing time and talents- two things every person possesses. We will not waste our gifts. - COMPETITIVE EXCELLENCE - Winning with humility and honor and understanding defeat in honor and grace will matter in the journey. The toughness and grit of the heart to work through both is essential and will be taught. Administration, coaches and parents will work together to compete in the arena but also compete for the hearts of our young people. We will work heartily as for the Lord and not for men (Colossians 3:23).
HISTORY AND TRADITION

WHAT MAKES LCA ATHLETICS DIFFERENT?
We have a proud heritage of faith and success, but success is not solely defined by earthly trophies. Athletic success at LCA is mostly determined by the character-building investment our coaches, administrators and staff, put into our student-athletes. We have won KHSAA state titles, All "A" championships and had several student-athletes earn statewide athletic honors. As great as these achievements are, they are nothing if we have not put God first and led our student athletes in their walk with Christ. Our plan is to build on those successes, giving all glory and honor to God.
