  • Longwood University Athletics
    LONGWOOD UNIVERSITY and the Big South Longwood has a history of strong intercollegiate athletics that dates back to the 1920’s for women, before the school became coeducational in 1976 and athletics for men were added. The women’s programs were a member of the AIAW from 1972-82, before moving to the NCAA as a member of Division II (1982-83). The men’s programs were members of NCAA Division III through 1979-80, before moving to Division II (1980-81). Former Longwood President Dr. Patricia P. Cormier (1996-2010) informed the NCAA in a letter dated November 12, 2002 of Longwood’s intention to reclassify its intercollegiate athletics program to Division I status, and the department went through an NCAA-mandated five-year process that included a four-year reclassification period (2003-07) – following a one-year ‘exploratory period’ (2002-03) – to change its membership (see timeline). Dr. Cormier received a letter from the NCAA dated July 11, 2007 stating that the NCAA Division I Management Council Administrative Committee, acting on behalf of the Division I Management Council, had approved the recommendation from the Division I Management Council Membership Subcommittee to transfer Longwood to Division I active membership as of September 1, 2007. The Lancers Lcompeted during 2007-08 as one of three (UC Davis, Northern Colorado) new members of NCAA Division I. The decision to move to Division I was part of Longwood’s overall strategic plan to raise the visibility and profile of the University. Longwood has competed as a Division I Independent since 2007-08, though the Lancers have had single-sport conference memberships in field hockey (NorPac, since 2005), men’s soccer (Atlantic Soccer, since 2005), women’s lacrosse (National Lacrosse, since 2009), and women’s soccer (United Soccer, 2005-08).
