John Carroll offers 24 men's and women's varsity sports teams. The university's official colors are blue and gold and teams compete under the nickname Blue Streaks. In 2025, John Carroll joined the North Coast Athletic Conference (NCAA) Division III. The university was previously a member institution of the [[Ohio Athletic Conference]] since 1989.

The university plays football, lacrosse and soccer in [[Don Shula]] Stadium, named after the winningest coach in NFL history, who had studied at John Carroll between 1947 and 1951. Shula contributed to the stadium's construction, as did former [[Washington Redskins]] star and JCU alumnus [[London Fletcher]] '98.

In 1974–75, the wrestling team won the NCAA Division III national championship. In addition, three teams have qualified for the national semifinals in team sporting events: the 2002 football team, the 2003–04 men's basketball team, and the 2016 football team. On November 12, 2016, John Carroll defeated the [[University of Mount Union]] 31–28, snapping the program's college football record of 112 straight regular season wins.

There have been 22 individual national champions: 16 in wrestling, two in men's outdoor track & field, one in men's indoor track & field, one in women's outdoor track & field, one in women's diving, and one in men's swimming.
