Johns Hopkins was established in 1876 and currently serves as a research university and teaching hospital. Though Johns Hopkins is the smallest research university in the nation, its faculty is among the most distinguished and receives more federal research grants than any other university in the United States. The academic program is extremely flexible as there are no university-wide core requirements; undergraduate students are expected to put their own programs together with help from faculty advisors. Johns Hopkins offers nearly 50 Bachelor, Masters, and PhD programs. Majors offered include Computer and Information Sciences, Geography, International Relations, and Near and Middle Eastern Studies. US News 2008 Report on America's Best Colleges ranked Johns Hopkins #14 among national institutions.

The campus is located just north of downtown Baltimore (pop.650k)

Conference and Schedule

Johns Hopkins plays in the Centennial Conference (www.centennial.org) which is comprised of 11 teams from Maryland and Pennsylvania. Among D3 conferences, the Centennial would be considered average. Johns Hopkins is the all time winningest team in the Centennial. Conference play can start in late November or early December and there is generally a three week winter break before league play resumes in January. Hopkins will play most teams twice in an 18 game schedule. Game days during the week can vary but Saturday afternoon games are a tradition. The farthest conference away game is at Muhlenberg some 150 miles from campus. The season concludes with the Centennial tourney which takes the top five teams with the top seed getting a first round bye. Winner receives automatic NCAA berth.
