University of Illinois Chicago Athletics
The University of Illinois Chicago's Department of Intercollegiate Athletics is an NCAA Division I athletic program sponsoring 300 student-athletes across 18 sports competing in the Missouri Valley Conference. Our nickname, the Flames, is a reference to the Great Chicago Fire of 1871. Our primary school colors are Fire Engine Red and Navy Pier Blue, the latter a nod to UIC's roots on Chicago's iconic Navy Pier at Lake Michigan. Since earning Division I status in 1981, UIC has amassed 75 conference championships and made 47 NCAA postseason appearances. In addition, 20 Flames have achieved All-America status, 83 have earned recognition as Player of the Year, and 55 coaches have been honored as Coach of the Year. UIC student-athletes boast a 93% Graduation Success Rate and a cumulative GPA of 3.0 or higher for 19 consecutive semesters. UIC stands alone as Chicago’s largest institution and only public research university. The 50,000 members of our campus community and our 325,000 living alumni embody the pride and spirit of our great city. We are, and will always remain, For Chicago!
