Lebanon Valley College Athletics

Lebanon Valley competes in NCAA Division III, where sports focus on personal development rather than commercial spectacle and athletes receive no athletic scholarships.

The Flying Dutchmen field 25 varsity teams in the Middle Atlantic Conferences, creating extensive opportunities for athletic participation. Division III emphasizes the student-athlete experience over revenue generation, meaning smaller crowds but strong team camaraderie. Lebanon Valley has built a solid reputation in several sports within their conference, though the school prioritizes academic achievement alongside athletic participation. The high percentage of student-athletes reflects the college's commitment to well-rounded education where sports serve as character-building experiences rather than pathways to professional careers.
