The 1999-2000 men's basketball team made school history, becoming the first Cascades squad to win a national championship.

The team posted a sparkling 15-1 record in BCCAA regular-season play, with its lone loss coming against the Langara Falcons. The Cascades would avenge that loss in the conference final by a score of 79-76, advancing to the CCAA national championship in Edmonton, Alta. The UCFV squad defeated Dawson College (97-85 in overtime), St. Thomas University (90-65), and finally Humber College (63-57) to earn its first national crown.

Wayne Jones was named MVP of the national tourney, and Pat McKay and Ryan Haviland were second team all-stars. The Cascades' roster also featured Mike McLaverty, Brad Petersen, Mike Lee, Jamie Armstrong, Ryan Dyck, Dan Young, Anthony Toth, Jarami Reid, Tycson Boult, and Aaron Wells. Coaches were Pat Lee and Tom Antil, and Aiden Kelly was team manager.
