Montclair State University Athletics
The Montclair State red hawks compete in the New Jersey Athletic Conference of the NCAA. Intercollegiate sports include football, baseball, softball, field hockey, volleyball, swimming, wrestling, track, and men’s and women’s soccer, basketball, and lacrosse. There is also a non-varsity program in ice hockey. Most recently Montclair State reclassified the sports of men’s and women’s cross country, men’s lacrosse, women’s tennis, and wrestling from varsity sports to club sports, due to a lack of sufficient human and fiscal resources. This move was made to insure the ongoing integrity and efficiency of the University’s other varsity sports programs.
Montclair State athletic facilities include the 1,200-seat Panzer Gymnasium and arena, the Red Hawk Tennis Courts, the 3,400-seat Yogi Berra stadium (home to both Red Hawks baseball and the New Jersey Jackals Northern League team), and the 6,000-seat Sprague Field that hosts football and soccer games.
