The DePauw Tigers are the athletic teams that represent DePauw University, a small liberal arts school in Greencastle, Indiana. The university's teams play in the NCAA Division III and currently belong to the North Coast Athletic Conference.

DePauw has a passionate and long-standing rivalry with nearby Wabash College, culminating each football season with the Monon Bell game, which is the sixth most-played Division III rivalry and the 12th-most played in college football.[1] To date, there have been 116 total games played between the two teams, resulting in a lead for Wabash at 60–53–9.[2]

DePauw had been a member of the Southern Collegiate Athletic Conference from 1997 to 2011, and won numerous conference championships, most notably in women's basketball, where the school is a Division III power. DePauw's program had also won the conference's overall "President's Trophy" seven times in that span, including six consecutive President's Trophies from 2005–06 to 2010–11.[3]

Football

The DePauw Tigers football program is currently the 17th most winning program in Division III history and have been the co-champions of the SCAC four times.[4]

They currently hold the Monon Bell following a 49–14 victory over their rival, the Wabash Little Giants, on November 12, 2022. [5]
