Athletics
Scranton athletes compete at the NCAA Division III. In 2007, Scranton joined the newly formed Landmark Conference, which ended a long history with the Middle Atlantic/Freedom Conference.
The school offers 18 varsity sports and has won national championships in Men's Basketball in 1976 and 1983 and Women's Basketball in 1985. The university's basketball teams play at the John Long Center located in the heart of the campus. The university's soccer and field hockey teams play at Fitzpatrick Field, also on campus.
In February 2012, the university fully acquired the South Side Sports Complex in Scranton. The complex will be converted into NCAA-regulation fields for soccer, baseball, and softball. The complex will also include a child's play area and public basketball courts.
