The Northern Colorado Bears play at the Bank of Colorado Arena in Greeley, competing in the Big Sky Conference. The Bears bring Big Sky basketball to Colorado's Front Range. Northern Colorado's blue and gold colors and Greeley location create a growing basketball identity in the conference.
Northern Colorado has made two NCAA Tournament appearances. The Bears have won Big Sky championships and have been one of the conference's more competitive programs. The program transitioned from Division II to Division I and has established itself in the Big Sky.
