Lynchburg Hornets


The Lynchburg Hornets refer to the 24 varsity intercollegiate athletic programs that represent the University of Lynchburg, located in Lynchburg, Virginia. On July 1, 2018, the institution's name changed from Lynchburg College to the University of Lynchburg. Lynchburg's intercollegiate athletic programs compete primarily in NCAA Division III, though its equestrian teams compete in Intercollegiate Horse Shows of America and National Collegiate Equestrian Association competition formats.
The Hornets compete as a full, non-football member of the Old Dominion Athletic Conference. Lynchburg was a founding member of the league in 1976. In that time, the Hornets have won 183 ODAC championships, including three in the 2017-18 academic year.
