About Hampton Basketball

Hampton competes in NCAA Division I basketball as a member of the Coastal Athletic Association (CAA), carrying forward a proud HBCU tradition with a history of big moments on the national stage. The Pirates have made six appearances in the NCAA Division I Men’s Basketball Tournament, most recently in 2016, and the program’s defining headline remains one of March’s most memorable upsets.

That signature moment came in 2001, when 15-seed Hampton upset 2-seed Iowa State 58–57 in the first round — a landmark win for the school and HBCU basketball. Hampton advanced to the Round of 32 in that tournament run under head coach Steve Merfeld, a name forever linked with the program’s March Madness legacy. The Pirates have also produced standout talent, including Rick Mahorn, a Hampton alumnus and NBA champion with the Detroit Pistons “Bad Boys.”

On campus in Hampton, Virginia, the Pirates play at the Hampton Convocation Center, a multi-purpose arena that opened in 1993 and seats approximately 7,200 fans. It’s known for an up-close environment where band performances, cheerleaders, and the campus community help shape a distinctive game-night feel.

Rivalries and regional matchups have long been part of the Hampton schedule, led by the in-state HBCU rivalry with Norfolk State in the “Battle of the Bay.” Traditional matchups with Howard and North Carolina A&T trace back to Hampton’s MEAC era, and in the CAA, competitive games against regional programs like William & Mary and Charleston can also drive demand. If there’s a specific rivalry game you’re targeting, browsing Hampton Pirates Basketball tickets early is the smartest move.

Getting Ready for Hampton Pirates Basketball Game Night

Once your tickets are confirmed, a little preparation goes a long way — especially in a campus setting where arrival and parking plans can set the tone for your night.

  • Download your tickets before you leave. Mobile service near Hampton Convocation Center gets congested on game nights. Save them to your phone's wallet or screenshot them as a backup.
