The Duquesne Dukes don’t have many championships in their men’s basketball program, but they do have a lengthy history that dates all the way back to the 1910s.

Duquesne made the NCAA Tournament in 1940, 1952, 1969, 1971 and 1977. In 1940, the Dukes made it to the semifinals but lost to Indiana. The bracket only included eight teams at the time. In 1969, the team won the East Regional third-place game, defeating St. John’s, 75-72.

However, since making the tournament last in 1977, the Dukes have not made it since. Duquesne finished with 21 wins in the 2019-20 season but the chance of making the Big Dance was wiped out due to the coronavirus pandemic.

Last season, Duquesne finished 6-24 overall and 1-16 in Atlantic-10 Conference play.
