The Purple Knights compete as members of the Northeast-10 Conference for most sports. Three teams compete as de facto Division I members. In skiing, a coeducational sport with a single NCAA team championship for all three divisions, the coed teams are part of the Eastern Intercollegiate Ski Association.[2] In women's ice hockey, which has a combined Division I/II national championship, the Purple Knights are a member of the New England Women's Hockey Alliance.[3]
