February 11, 2026 Catholic Drops Overtime Thriller at Susquehanna The Catholic men's basketball team traveled to Susquehanna on Wednesday night in the first of two road games this week for the team.

February 7, 2026 Gellene Drops Career-High in Points in Commanding Win Over Moravian The Catholic men's basketball team celebrated the 25th anniversary of the 2001 National Championship team, welcoming back several players and staff members from the team for a halftime ceremony.
