North Central University Athletics

North Central University Athletics has a proud heritage that spans nearly five decades. Over the years NCU athletes have worn different colors and been known as the Chiefs or Flames. In 1998-99 North Central became the Rams and claimed their familiar Navy Blue and Vegas Gold colors that remain today.

North Central has enjoyed membership in various conferences and national organizations including the National Bible College Athletic Association (NBCAA) and the National Christian College Athletic Association (NCCAA), and now is a full-fledged member of the National Collegiate Athletic Association (NCAA)

In 2010 NCU completed its final year of provisional membership in the National Collegiate Athletic Association (NCAA) Division III and became a full-fledged member. This was a proud day in NCU history that stands on a foundation built by all former athletes who have put on an NCU or NCBC jersey throughout the years. NCU currently competes in the Upper Midwest Athletic Conference (UMAC) as a member of the NCAA Division III.

Below is a list of accomplishments that celebrate the success of North Central Athletics and help motivate Rams athletes as they compete today. Check back soon for more updates in this area.
