Milwaukee Panthers
The Milwaukee Panthers are the athletic teams representing the University of Wisconsin–Milwaukee. They compete as a member of the National Collegiate Athletic Association (NCAA) Division I level, competing in the Horizon League for all sports since the 1994–95 season. A total of 13 Panthers athletic teams compete in NCAA Division I. The Panthers have won the James J. McCafferty Trophy as the Horizon League's all-sports champions seven times since 2000.
Milwaukee's athletic teams are nicknamed the Panthers, having previously been the Green Gulls (1927–1956) and Cardinals (1956–1964), adopting the Panthers nickname in 1964. Before 1990, the university's athletics program spent the majority of its history at the NCAA Division III and II levels, as well as several years at the NAIA level. All non-Division I sports moved to the NCAA Division I level for the 1990–91 academic year.
A member of the Horizon League, Milwaukee sponsors teams in six men's and seven women's NCAA-sanctioned sports.
The Panthers are the only Division I college baseball team in the state of Wisconsin. They have also qualified for four NCAA tournaments since 1999, most notably recording an 8–4 win over regional host Rice in the first round of the 1999 NCAA tournament. They also appeared in the 2001, 2002, and 2010 tournaments.
The only Panther to appear in a Major League Baseball game is outfielder Daulton Varsho, who debuted for the Arizona Diamondbacks in 2020.
The Panthers men's basketball team has had several high-profile head coaches, including Bo Ryan (1999–2001), who was a national runner-up in 2014 as the head coach at Wisconsin, and Bruce Pearl (2001–2005), who made the 2019 Final Four as head coach at Auburn.
Milwaukee made one appearance in the NCAA Division III men's basketball tournament in 1982 and two in the NCAA Division II men's basketball tournament: one in 1960, and one where they reached the Elite Eight in 1989.
As a Division I program, Milwaukee has made four NCAA tournaments since 2003, most notably, the 2005 tournament. As the twelfth seed in the Midwest regional, the Panthers upset fifth-seeded Alabama in the first round and fourth-seeded Boston College in the second round to reach the Sweet Sixteen. The Panthers would go on to lose in that round to the top-seeded eventual tournament runner-up Illinois.
