Windsor Lancers

The Windsor Lancers are the varsity athletic teams that represent the University of Windsor in Windsor, Ontario, Canada. The school's varsity program supports 9 different sports. Their mascot is a lancer, and the team's colours are blue and gold. The varsity teams compete in the Ontario University Athletics provincial conference and the national U Sports organization. The school joined the Ontario-Quebec Athletic Association (now known as the OUA) in 1952.

The university offers 8 sports for women and 9 sports for men. Additionally, there are 2 sports clubs offered: men's baseball and women's fastpitch.

As of the 2015–16 season, the Lancers have won 33 national titles and 87 provincial titles. From 2010 to 2016, the Lancers have won more national championships than any other Canadian university.[citation needed]

Since 1990, the Windsor Lancers track and field teams have done well provincially and nationally, with the men's team winning 23 OUA titles and 9 national titles, and the women's team winning 17 OUA titles and 11 national titles, respectively.

The Windsor Lancers participate in the following varsity sports:

The Windsor Lancers women's basketball program is led by Head Coach Chantal Vallée, a native of Montreal, who has become one of the top women's basketball programs in the country, having captured five straight CIS national titles in 2011, 2012, 2013, 2014, and 2015.

The team has achieved some notable performances, such as in the 2008–09 season, when the team set a 21-1 record, their first-ever OUA Provincial Championship title. In 2010–11, the Lancers won their first-ever CIS National Championship title in the program's 50th year. With a 20–2 regular season record. With the win, the Lancers became the first host school to ever win a CIS national championship title in women's basketball at home and were also the first team outside of the Canada West Conference to win the Bronze Baby Trophy in the last 19 years.

In 2011–12, Coach Vallée and the Lancer women's basketball team captured their second straight CIS national title, while in 2012–13, Vallée's squad made program history as they completed an undefeated regular season with a 21–0 record and the No. 1 ranking in Canada. In 2013–14, Coach Vallée led her team to a fourth straight CIS national championship title, winning at home for the second time in four years.
