The 2001 NCAA Division III men's basketball tournament was the 27th annual single-elimination tournament to determine the national champions of National Collegiate Athletic Association (NCAA) men's Division III collegiate basketball in the United States.

The field contained forty-eight teams, and each program was allocated to one of four sectionals. All sectional games were played on campus sites, while the national semifinals, third-place final, and championship finals were contested at the Salem Civic Center in Salem, Virginia.[1]

Catholic defeated William Paterson, 76–62, in the championship, clinching their first national title.

The Cardinals (28–5) were coached by Mike Lonergan. Lonergan would later coach at Division I programs Vermont and George Washington.

Pat Maloney, also from Catholic, was named Most Outstanding Player.
