PROGRAM OVERVIEW

Founded in 1791 and now serving 14,320 students in Burlington, the University of Vermont fields a competitive Division I program competing in the America East Conference from Patrick Gymnasium. Coach John Becker's 16-player roster compiled a 17-10 overall record with an impressive 7-1 conference mark, demonstrating strength both at home (9-5) and on the road (8-5). Vermont's offense averages 75.2 points per game while holding opponents to 69.9, reflecting a balanced approach that has yielded consistent results in conference play.

Becker's program has established itself as a genuine contender within America East, where the 7-1 conference record places the Catamounts among the league's upper tier. The team's point differential of approximately 5.3 points per game indicates a well-coached squad that competes effectively across all situations. With nearly equal home and road success rates, Vermont demonstrates the kind of travel resilience necessary for success in a geographically dispersed conference, positioning the program as a potential postseason participant from a school with deep New England roots.
