Creighton University

The Creighton Bluejays embody the heart and soul of the Heartland at Creighton University in Omaha, Nebraska. Since 1917, the Bluejays have built a respected athletic legacy competing in the Big East Conference with blue, white, and navy pride, rooted in Jesuit values and championship tradition. Their story features legendary moments, including the 1991 College World Series appearance that captivated baseball fans nationwide. Doug McDermott’s historic basketball career, scoring 3,150 points and earning three consensus All-American honors, underscores Bluejay excellence. Baseball legends like Hall of Famer Bob Gibson alongside NBA stars Kyle Korver and McDermott himself attest to the program’s high-level talent development. CHI Health Center Omaha hosts intense, fortress-like home games where chants of “White and Blue” echo through the Midwest. Playing baseball at Charles Schwab Field—the home of the College World Series—and soccer at Morrison Stadium enrich the championship atmosphere. With 18 NCAA soccer tournament appearances and decades of basketball excellence, Creighton embraces Jesuit values and a Midwestern work ethic that propels its blue and white warriors to soar highest and forge lasting legends.
