The Quincy Hawks are the athletic teams that represent Quincy University, located in Quincy, Illinois, in NCAA Division II intercollegiate sports. The Hawks compete as members of the West Division of the Great Lakes Valley Conference for all sports except men's volleyball, which is a member of the Midwestern Intercollegiate Volleyball Association. Since there is no men's volleyball at the Division II level, the men's volleyball team is the only program that plays at the Division I level. QU joined the GLVC in 1994.
Quincy will add women's lacrosse in 2017 and men's lacrosse in 2018, bringing the total number of programs up to 20.[1]

The men's soccer team won the NAIA national men's soccer championship a record eleven times, 1966-67, 1971, 1973-75, and 1977-81 (the five consecutive titles is also a record) and finished second in 1968 and 1970. The program moved to the NCAA's Division I in 1984. From 1987 through 1990, the Hawks competed in the Big Central Soccer Conference and was an associate member of the Mid-Continent Conference in 1994 and 1995. In 1996, both Quincy and SIU Edwardsville joined the GLVC, stepping down to division II.[2]
