Team History

The Mount St. Mary’s Mountaineers have a rich basketball tradition that began on Feb. 22, 1909, when they defeated St. Patrick’s AA (Delaware) 27-18 in the only game they played that season. Mount St. Mary’s played a seven-game schedule in the 1909-1910 season, including contests with Manhattan and Loyola (Md.)

Mount St. Mary’s became a Division II powerhouse, appearing in the NCAA Division II Tournament on 14 occasions and winning the national championship in 1962. The Mountaineers advanced to the title game in 1981 but were defeated by Florida Southern. Mount St. Mary’s last appeared in the Division II Tournament in 1987.

The Mountaineers made the jump to Division I before the start of the 1988-89 season, which they played as an independent. The season gave Mount St. Mary’s the opportunity to face the likes of Auburn, Seton Hall and West Virginia. The Mountaineers joined the Northeast Conference before the start of the 1989-90 season and remained there through the 2021-22 season, eventually making the jump to the Metro Atlantic Athletic Conference for the 2022-23 season.
