Mission

Lethal in Competition, Legendary in Life

Nevada State Scorpions don’t just compete — we strike with purpose. Here at Nevada State, we forge true student-athletes. Their dedication to performing their best on the field is matched only by their commitment to personal achievement and community.

In other words: the stinger packs a punch, but it’s the mind, heart, and teamwork behind it all that delivers a lifelong impact. And at Nevada State, that’s what matters most.
