Home of the Villains

The Bishop athletic program gives students opportunities to participate in a variety of sports. Student athletes enjoy and excel in competition, teamwork, cooperation, and working together to achieve a common goal. Our athletic department works to provide the utmost positive experience for every student on every team for every season at Bishop McGuinness.
 
The school is a member of the NC High School Athletic Association and the Northwest Conference. We compete – and win – against the top public and private schools in the Triad, and are eligible for participation in the NCHSAA State Playoffs in all sports.
 
Since 2020, Bishop athletics has achieved the following:
  • 36 conference championships
  • 5 state titles
  • 2 conference Wells Fargo cups
  • 2 state Wells Fargo cups
  • Nearly 65% percent of students participated in at least one sport
  • Over 20 students have signed to play college athletics

    
Why are we called the Villains?

Our school mascot, “The Villain,” comes from our early roots at the Villa Marie Anna Academy. The school motto, “Praesis ut Prosis” is taken from the seal of the late Bishop Eugene J. McGuinness and serves as a challenge for all who would desire “to excel that they might better serve.”
