All sports except men's lacrosse compete in the Big South Conference. The men's lacrosse team joined the Southern Conference July 1, 2014. The Panthers joined Division I in 1999, after previously having been NCAA Division II and being members of the NAIA prior to 1992. HPU was a founding member of the North State Conference, which is now the NCAA Division II Conference Carolinas.

HPU's other previous athletic directors include Jerry Steele, who was also basketball coach from 1972–2003, and Virgil Yow, who was also a coach. HPU's men's basketball coach is Scott Cherry, who was a member of the University of North Carolina Tar Heels' 1993 NCAA Championship team. HPU's main athletic facilities are the Millis Center (basketball and volleyball), Vert Stadium (track, soccer and lacrosse) and Williard Stadium (baseball).
