The Northwest Missouri State Bearcats men's basketball team represents Northwest Missouri State University in Maryville, Missouri, in the NCAA Division II men's basketball competition. The team is currently coached by Ben McCollum, who has been at the head of the helm since 2009.[1] The Bearcats currently compete, and are one of two founding members remaining, of the Mid-America Intercollegiate Athletics Association (MIAA).[2] The basketball team plays its home games in the Bearcat Arena on campus.[3]

National championship game

The men's team in its sole national championship appearance in 1932 lost to Henry's Clothiers in the Amateur Athletic Union title game at Convention Hall in Kansas City, Missouri 15-14 in a last second shot. The Bearcat team was coached by Hank Iba. The featured Bearcat players included Jack McCracken and Wilbur Stalcup.[4] At the time both corporate-sponsored teams and colleges competed in the same tournament.

Bearcat Arena

Main article Bearcat Arena

The home of the Bearcat basketball program, Bearcat Arena has a seating capacity of 2,500 spectators. The facility also houses annual University commencement ceremonies and professional concerts. The facility underwent a $6 million renovation in the 1993-94 academic year with additions to the south and north sides of the original building. The south side received a new facade that included a fitness center in the basement, an expanded lobby and concourse on the first floor, and coaches’ offices on the second floor. The Student Recreation Center was built onto the north side, featuring three basketball courts, five racquetball courts, a suspended jogging track and weight-lifting equipment.
