Colonial Athletic Association

The Coastal Athletic Association (CAA), formerly the Colonial Athletic Association, is a collegiate athletic conference affiliated with the NCAA's Division I whose full members are located in East Coast states, from Massachusetts to South Carolina. Most of its members are public universities, and the conference is headquartered in Richmond. The CAA was historically a Southern conference until the addition of four schools in the Northeastern United States (of five that joined from rival conference America East) after the turn of the 21st century, which added geographic balance to the conference.
The conference does not has only one member that play varsity hockey, the Northeastern Huskies men's ice hockey and Northeastern Huskies women's ice hockey teams; but many members have American Collegiate Hockey Association club programs. The Delaware Blue Hens women's ice hockey team will begin play with the 2025-26 season.
