Quick Facts

HOOT ARE THE OWLS?
The Southern Connecticut State University Owls are 500-plus strong, across 19 varsity NCAA Division II sports and more than 300 undergraduate students competing in club sports, every year. We come from 21 states, Puerto Rico and 12 different countries. We're more than just a number on a roster in the program. We're more than goal scorers, home run hitters, fast runners and swimmers or graceful gymnasts.

Champions: Jordan Davis became the 81st student-athlete in SCSU Athletics' history to win a NCAA Division II Championship when he took the crown in the Javelin event in 2022. Historically, Southern Connecticut has also won 10 NCAA Division II National Championships including six for men's soccer (1987, 1990, 1992, 1995, 1998, 1999), three in men's gymnastics (1973, 1975, 1976) and one in women's basketball (2007). All-Americans: Owl's student-athletes have collected over 1,200 All-American honors, all-time, including 23 in 2022.

Involved: Socially, our teams support the community through food and toy drives, new student move-in day and much more. Lifelong learning and our student-athletes' well-being are paramount to our success. Guest speakers like former athlete Charles Clark to discuss mental health and Lou Giaquinto to speak about his journey at the Inaugural Athletic Director's Network Social provide our student-athletes with the tools to grow as students, and athletes.

Supported: The last two years have shown a remarkable commitment by our supporters and expansion of external partnerships. We're thankful for more-than 35 companies and local businesses that support SCSU Athletics and Recreation through external partnerships. In addition, the last year saw Southern Connecticut Athletic and Recreation's supporters contribute over $350,000 during the annual Day of Caring campaign as well as the Homecoming Campaign, which rings in at a 300% PERCENT INCREASE from the previous year. With the support at Southern Connecticut Athletics' Annual Golf Outing, it was a banner year for our supporters.

We can't thank you enough. Your contributions allow us to improve the student-athlete experience. It means additional scholarship dollars, funding for travel and equipment, and gives us the ability to enhance programming to support our student-athletes' needs.
