The Carleton Knights are the varsity athletic teams of Carleton College, located in Northfield, Minnesota. They participate in NCAA Division III and in the Minnesota Intercollegiate Athletic Conference (MIAC). Carleton was a founding member of the MIAC in 1920, but left in 1925.[1] Carleton was also a founding member of the Midwest Conference in 1921, where it competed exclusively from 1925 to 1983 before rejoining the MIAC.[2]

Carleton's biggest athletic rival is St. Olaf College, located on the other side of Northfield. The Knights and the Oles contest six trophies in yearly matchups. The first trophy, The Goat, was created in 1913 and goes to the winning men's basketball team.[3]

The Knights have won two MIAC football conference championships, in 1924 and 1992.[16] With a 9-1 overall record, the 1992 team was selected to play in the NCAA Division III Football Tournament, losing in the first round to Central College (Iowa) 20-8. Carleton competed in the Midwest Conference from 1922 to 1982 and won 9 conference football championships during that time.[17]

Carleton and St. Olaf played their first football game in 1918 and have played each other every year except four since then. The winner of the game gets the Goat Trophy, which was first awarded in 1931.[18] Sports Illustrated wrote about the undefeated 1954 team's game vs. St. Olaf and covered the 1962 St. Olaf at Carleton game.[19][20]

Rotblatt

In 1964, Carleton students named an intramural slow-pitch softball league after Marv Rotblatt, a former Chicago White Sox pitcher. Although traditional intramural softball is still played at Carleton, the name "Rotblatt" now refers to an annual beer softball game that is played with one inning for every year of the school's over 150-year existence.[33] In 1997, Sports Illustrated honored Rotblatt in its "Best of Everything" section with the award, "Longest Intramural Event."[34]
