Record
Saint Augustine's holds the distinction as the most decorated Division II athletics program, with a record 37 NCAA team titles and 265 individual titles. This also places them as the fourteenth-most productive athletics program across all three divisions. All of those championships have come in either men's indoor (13 team, 75 individual), women's indoor (6 team, 41 individual), men's outdoor (14 team, 105 individual), or women's outdoor (4 team, 44 individual) track and field.[1]
Discontinuation of programs
In December 2024, the CIAA indefinitely suspended Saint Augustine's for noncompliance with NCAA and CIAA requirements,[2] and revoked its membership in June 2025.[3] Saint Augustine's filed for Chapter 11 bankruptcy on April 27, 2026 due to its severe fiscal crisis.[4][5] It additionally halted efforts to continue as an accredited institution, and reverted to unaccredited status after May 15.[4]
