The Monmouth Hawks refer to the 23 sports teams representing Monmouth University in West Long Branch, New Jersey. The Hawks compete in the NCAA Division I and are members of the Colonial Athletic Association, joining on July 1, 2022. The football team became an FCS Independent for the 2013 season, and moved to the Big South Conference on July 1, 2014. The women's bowling program was a charter member of the Southland Bowling League, a single-sport conference formed in January 2015, but moved that sport to the Mid-Eastern Athletic Conference after the 2017–18 season.

On January 25, 2022, Monmouth announced it would be leaving the MAAC to join the Colonial Athletic Association, effective July 1, 2022. At that time, its football team will leave the Big South to join CAA Football, which is administered by the all-sports CAA but is legally a separate entity.

Teams

Monmouth sponsors teams in ten men's and eleven women's NCAA sanctioned sports:

  1. ^ Football competed in the Big South Conference through the 2021 season, but upon joining the all-sports CAA in 2022 will also join CAA Football, legally a separate entity from the all-sports CAA though administered by it.
  2. ^ Bowling competes in the Mid-Eastern Athletic Conference, and will remain in that league after joining the CAA.
  3. ^ The MAAC dropped field hockey at the end of the 2018 season. Monmouth moved that sport to the America East Conference; the 2022 season was its last in that league, as the CAA sponsors that sport.
