Binghamton University Athletics

Binghamton Athletics celebrated 50 years of women's athletics at the University during the 2019-20 year. The celebration included a series of features, highlights, interviews and memories throughout the year at bubearcats.com and on the athletics social media channels. 

Beginning with the 1969-70 women's swimming and diving team, more than 1,500 female student-athletes have competed as Colonials and Bearcats.
