The Missouri S&T Miners (variously S&T or Missouri Miners) are the athletic teams that represent the Missouri University of Science and Technology, located in Rolla, Missouri, in intercollegiate sports as a member of the Division II level of the National Collegiate Athletic Association (NCAA), primarily competing in the Great Lakes Valley Conference (GLVC) for most of its sports since the 2005–06 academic year; its men's swimming team competed in the New South Intercollegiate Swim Conference (NSISC) before the GLVC began to sponsor swimming as a championship sport.^[4] Men's volleyball, added in 2022–23, competes as an independent through the 2025 season (2024–25 school year), after which the GLVC will start sponsoring that sport.

The Miners previously competed in the Mid-America Intercollegiate Athletics Association (MIAA) from 1935–36 to 2004–05; and in the Missouri College Athletic Union (MCAU) of the National Association of Intercollegiate Athletics (NAIA) from 1924–25 to 1932–33.

Overview

Until 1964, the school was known as the "Missouri School of Mines", and until 2008 it was the "University of Missouri–Rolla". The nickname "Miner", or a variation of it, is common at mining schools in many states. Missouri S&T's official school colors are silver and gold; the color green has historic relevance and is also used prominently.^[5]

Men's

Missouri S&T began men's volleyball play in the 2023 season (2022–23 school year). Unlike all other S&T teams, men's volleyball is a de facto Division I member. The NCAA's top-level national championship in that sport is open to both D-I and D-II members, and scholarship limits are identical in both divisions. The Miners are competing as an independent through the 2025 season, after which the GLVC will start sponsoring the sport with S&T as one of the seven inaugural teams.^[29]

2023	12–9	N/A

Notes

^ ^a ^b The NCAA classifies indoor and outdoor track & field, both sponsored by S&T for both men and women, as two separate sports. Indoor championships are held in the NCAA's winter season and outdoor championships in the spring season.
