Tech's greatest men's basketball success came under the guidance of head coach Sam Hindsman, who led the Wonder Boys from 1947–66.

Hindsman, who also won two AIC football titles at Tech during the 1950s, was ahead of his time with an up-tempo style that dazzled fans and opponents.

Tech won a school record 44 games in 2014 while winning the Great American Conference championship.

The 2000 team became the first from Arkansas Tech to qualify for the NCAA Division II Volleyball Tournament.

Arkansas Tech's two greatest moments of athletic glory were provided by the back-to-back NAIA Division I national championships captured by the Golden Suns basketball program in 1992 and 1993.

Joe Foley, Tech head women's basketball coach from 1987–2003, was the architect of both national championship teams.

Arkansas Tech captured consecutive NCAA Division II South Region titles and back-to-back GSC Tournament championships in women's basketball in 2010 and 2011.
