Football

The football team plays at Carl Wooten Field and competes in the NCAA Division II Independent Football Alliance with several games from the Central States Football League of the National Association of Intercollegiate Athletics (NAIA). In the early nineties, OPSU Aggies football was known as a football powerhouse. The program has recently had tremendous success thanks to the late Mike Wyatt (2007-2010). The 2010 team produced the Aggie football program's first winning season since 2004, going 6-5.

Rodeo

A point of pride for OPSU is its men's and women's rodeo teams. The school is a member of the Central Plains Region of the National Intercollegiate Rodeo Association (NIRA) and has won several regional and national championships in the sport. As part of their scholarship package, rodeo team members may receive lodging in special housing and stalls for their animals.
