ATHLETICS




Are you ready to make your mark with #KnightNation? Whether you’re geared up to play in Central Penn’s signature maroon and orange or can’t wait to bring the energy from the stands, Central Penn College athletics offers a dynamic and unforgettable experience for every student. Join one of the most competitive collegiate athletic programs in the Midstate, where every game is a chance to showcase our spirit, talent, and drive for excellence. Let’s go, Knights!
We are fortunate to have a partnership with the Harrisburg Senators, the AA affiliate of the Washington Nationals baseball organization. This makes Central Penn College one of the only colligate baseball teams in the nation to play at a world-class, minor-league stadium.
Our soccer teams call Skyline Sports Complex home, also a former professional stadium, that neighbors FNB Field. This is made possible by an innovative partnership with the City of Harrisburg.
Both fields are located on scenic City Island in Harrisburg, Pa.
