The Last Amateurs is a book by John Feinstein. First published in 2000, the book chronicles the 1999–2000 Patriot League basketball season.
It emphasizes the efforts of the true scholar-athletes at the highly respected institutions that make up the league, where academics come first, and athletes play for love of the game rather than as a farm team for the NBA.
The seven teams in the Patriot League at the time were Army, Bucknell, Colgate, Holy Cross, Lafayette, Lehigh, and Navy. Since the book was published American University, Boston University, and Loyola University-Maryland have joined the league.
