Lycoming College is pleased to announce that it has accepted an invitation to become a member of the Landmark Conference, effective in the 2023-24 academic year. Along with Lycoming, Wilkes University will also join the Landmark Conference, as the Landmark’s executive board confirmed the acceptance of the two schools as the league’s 9th and 10th full-time members. Lycoming sponsors 19 intercollegiate varsity programs at the NCAA Division III level, of which 18 align with current Landmark sponsorships. The Warriors will begin competition in both field hockey and baseball beginning with the 2022-23 academic year. Along with baseball and field hockey, Lycoming joins men’s and women’s cross country, men’s and women’s soccer, volleyball, men’s and women’s basketball, men’s and women’s swimming, men’s golf, men’s and women’s lacrosse, men’s and women’s tennis, and softball as Landmark-sponsored sports. Wrestling, which qualifies for the NCAA Championship via a regional tournament, will become an independent sport. “Lycoming College is pleased to accept the invitation to become a full member of the Landmark Conference,” says President Kent Trachte, Ph.D. “We have great memories of our rich athletic history in the Middle Atlantic Conference. We also celebrate a future in the Landmark Conference that has great promise and potential to create an exciting next chapter in the history of Lycoming Warrior athletics. We look forward to reinvigorating past rivalries and establishing new ones as we continue the work of developing the characteristics of leadership, grit, sacrifice, self-discipline, and a strong work ethic by affording students the opportunity to compete in intercollegiate sports. We are confident that membership in the Landmark Conference advances Lycoming’s identity as a national liberal arts college.” LYCOMING COLLEGE TO JOIN LANDMARK CONFERENCE IN 2023 YOUR GIFT IS TAX DEDUCTIBLE AND WILL BE ALLOCATED AS YOU DIRECT.
