All 17 Pacific sports represented by student-athlete grads at spring 2025 commencement

Pacific student-athletes celebrate on commencement day.
More than 80 student-athletes representing all 17 of University of the Pacific’s Division I sports programs earned their degrees Saturday at the spring 2025 commencement ceremony on the Stockton Campus.
There are 82 student-athletes graduating, surpassing the 75 student-athletes who earned degrees last spring.
“I continue to be impressed with how devoted our student-athletes are both athletically and academically,” said Director of Athletics Adam Tschuor. “They’ve shown their allegiance to Pacific with their success in competition and their commitment to earning their degrees. I look forward to tracking the careers of our student-athletes as they go on to represent the Tigers in the work force.”
Pacific’s baseball and softball teams had the most graduates with 11 each, followed by men’s water polo with nine graduates and women’s swim with eight.
“I am extremely proud of our graduating players. Their contributions to our program are much appreciated, and they will be dearly missed. They will always be family to me, and I am confident they will be even more successful when they leave Pacific. I wish them all the best,” said Head Baseball Coach Reed Peters.
In total, Pacific awarded 91 degrees to student-athletes in 2024-25, which included nine from the fall 2024 semester. An additional three student-athletes are on pace to graduate with degrees over the summer.
