New Jersey Athletic Conference - Basketball

New Jersey Athletic Conference Basketball is the men’s and women’s collegiate basketball competition of the New Jersey Athletic Conference (NJAC), an NCAA Division III league founded in 1957. The conference began as a men’s league and integrated women’s sports in 1985. Its basketball seasons use regular-season standings and a six-team championship tournament, with each round played at the site of the higher seed; the winners receive NCAA Division III automatic qualification. In 2026, The College of New Jersey (TCNJ) won both championships, overcoming top-seeded Montclair State in the men’s final and William Paterson in the women’s final. The NJAC’s official platform provides schedules, standings, brackets, results and postseason information.
