OCU teams have won 57 National Championships since 1988, most recently repeating as the 2014 NAIA Men's Cross Country Champions.[29] This marks the 20th straight year that OCU has won a National Championship.[30] A member of the NCAA until 1984–1985, OCU made the NCAA Men's Division I Basketball Championship tournament 11 times and the National Invitation Tournament twice as an independent, making OCU the most successful basketball program to no longer compete at the Division I level. In 1984–1985 OCU won the Midwestern City Conference baseball championship and made NCAA Division I Baseball Championship tournament before moving to the NAIA the next year. Its basketball tradition spans the glory days of legendary coaches Abe Lemons, Paul Hansen, and Doyle Parrack.
