Vincennes University Athletics

Vincennes University competes in the NJCAA, which is the junior college level where students can earn athletic scholarships before transferring to four-year schools. The Trailblazers offer 8 varsity sports with 142 total athletes, meaning about 3.8% of the 3,739 students play varsity sports. The athletic program receives $1,312,893 in scholarship money, which helps recruit talent to this small Indiana town. NJCAA athletics sit between high school and NCAA Division I, giving players a chance to develop skills and earn playing time they might not get at larger universities. Many NJCAA athletes use these programs as stepping stones to transfer to four-year schools with stronger athletic credentials and more scholarship opportunities.
