Prior to the 1995–96 year, the Terriers played in Division II in all sports, and until the 1988–89 period, Wofford's athletic teams were members of the NAIA.

Early Wofford teams played at textile parks until the field was leveled and expanded to add a baseball diamond.

Due to the lack of records about those years, the court where Wofford played their games until the Andrews Fieldhouse opened in 1929 is still unknown.

They have beaten North Carolina twice, South Carolina twice, Georgia twice, Clemson, Georgia Tech, NC State, Seton Hall, Purdue, Tulane, Wake Forest, Cincinnati, Auburn, Virginia Tech, Air Force, George Mason, Xavier and Texas A&M since joining D1 for the 1995–96 season.

[11] Wofford has also competed in the NCAA Division I tournmanet, making one appearance in the 2009 edition, when the team lost to Santa Barbara 1–0 in first round.
