Athletics



25% of Nazareth undergraduates play on our 25 NCAA Division III athletic teams. In the last five years, the Golden Flyers have captured Empire 8 Conference titles in men’s soccer, women’s swimming and diving, men’s swimming and diving, men’s basketball, women’s volleyball, women’s tennis and men’s lacrosse. 

Nazareth has also had several athletes recognized as All-Americans recently, including competitors in women’s soccer, women’s volleyball, men’s lacrosse, men’s basketball, men’s hockey, women’s swimming and diving, men’s track and field, and women’s track and field. 

On Naz Giving Day, your gift to Athletics will help our student-athletes excel in the classroom and on the field or court, in the pool, and on the ice.
