About Lackawanna College Athletics

Lackawanna College Athletics is home to a dynamic community of student-athletes committed to excellence both on and off the field. With a proud tradition of competitive success and academic integrity, our programs foster leadership, discipline, and personal growth. As the first college in the nation with a football program to transition directly from the NJCAA to NCAA Division II, we are entering a bold new era of opportunity and visibility.

Our teams compete across a wide range of sports—including football, basketball, soccer, volleyball, wrestling, esports, and more—supported by dedicated coaches, staff, and state-of-the-art facilities. We believe athletics is a powerful platform for education, and we hold our athletes to high standards of academic achievement, sportsmanship, and community engagement.

Whether you're a student, fan, or future Falcon, we invite you to #TakeFlight with us.
