The High Point Panthers are the 17 varsity athletic teams that represent High Point University (HPU) in High Point, North Carolina, United States. All of HPU's varsity teams compete at the NCAA Division I level. All sports except men's lacrosse and women's rowing compete in the Big South Conference. The men's lacrosse team joined the Atlantic 10 Conference after the 2022 season. Women's rowing was added in 2024–25, [2] initially competing as an independent until joining the new rowing league of the Mid-American Conference in 2025–26. [3] The Panthers joined Division I in 1999, after having been NCAA Division II and being members of the National Association of Intercollegiate Athletics (NAIA) prior to 1992. HPU was a founding member of the North State Conference, which is now the NCAA Division II Conference Carolinas. [4]

The team began varsity play in 1927–28 and was a charter member of the North State Conference (now Conference Carolinas) from 1930–31 through 1996–97, when the school began its transition to NCAA Division I.

High Point participated in the NCAA Division II Tournament in 1997.

HPU moved up to NCAA Division I in 1999–2000 and joined the Big South Conference. The Panthers made it to the Big South final in their first year of eligibility in 2002 and also made it to the championship game in 2004. HPU has had two Big South Players of the Year: Danny Gathings (2003–04) and Arizona Reid (2006–07, 2007–08). Reid is the only player in conference history with over 2,000 points and 1,000 rebounds and was A.P. All-American honorable mention twice. In 2011–12, guard Nick Barbour broke Reid's Division I scoring record, finishing his career with 2,121 points.

High Point University started women's basketball in 1967–68 and the team is now coached by DeUnna Hendrix (pronounced de-AH-nah), who was hired in May 2012. [8] Hendrix served as assistant coach for one season under Jennifer Hoover. [9] In Hoover's only season in 2011–12, the team achieved a record of 20–13.

[10] Hoover was then hired by her alma mater, Wake Forest, to be head coach in May 2012. [11]

High Point won the 1978 AIAW Division II national championship with a 92–88 overtime win over South Carolina State. The following year, High Point set a program record with 33 wins but was unable to defend its national title, falling to Tougaloo in the AIAW Region II Tournament.
