The Drexel Dragons are the athletic teams of Drexel University.

The school's athletic program includes eighteen NCAA Division I sports including nine men's and nine women's teams, with most sports teams competing in the Colonial Athletic Association (CAA). Drexel's athletic department was ranked first in gender equity by U.S. News. The university has demonstrated a high level of student-athlete academic performance, with a 10-year NCAA graduation rate of 91% compared to a national average of 85%.

Drexel has two recognized National Titles: the 1958 Dragon Soccer team, which was voted number one in a year end poll, and the 2013 Dragons women's basketball team, which won the 2013 Women's National Invitation Tournament.

In addition to the DAC which is located inside the Main Campus, Drexel utilizes fields located at 43rd and Powelton Avenues, the Vidas Athletic Complex.

Drexel's first intercollegiate event was a basketball game played against Temple University in January 1895, a game that Drexel won by a score of 26 to 1. The Dragons joined Division I in 1973. Drexel has received bids to four Division I NCAA Basketball Tournaments in 1986, 1994, 1995 and 1996. During the 1996 tournament, Malik Rose led the team to their only second round NCAA appearance after an upset of fifth-seeded Memphis.
