This study examined how Black male college athletes experience religion and spirituality as a form of support while attending a predominantly White institution (PWI). Semi-structured interviews were conducted with eight participants that self-identified with religion and spirituality as it relates to its influence on student success in college. The research site was a public research institution in the Southeast region of the United States. Transcripts were analyzed using Interpretative Phenomenological Analysis (IPA) to identify themes. Six superordinate themes emerged: (a) trusting in the viability of a transcendent source, (b) manifesting presence through prayer, (c) transcendent source for struggle, hope, and resilience, (d) opportunities for growth, (e) making sense of a developing identity, and (f) other sources of encouragement and aid. These findings were considered in light of the extant literature and Critical Race Theory (CRT) and Faith Development Theory (FDT) frameworks. The results of this study suggested that Black male college athletes utilize religion and spirituality as a form of support during many of their college and life experiences.
