The Mountain Pacific Sports Federation (MPSF) is a college athletic conference with members located mostly in the Western United States, although it has added members as far east as Massachusetts. The conference participates at the NCAA Division I level, primarily in Olympic sports that are not sponsored by a school's primary conference (such as the Pac-12 and Big West, many of whose members participate in MPSF competition in at least one of its sports).

{{toclimit|2}}

History

The MPSF was founded in 1992 to provide an outlet for competition in non-revenue-producing Olympic sports. The MPSF conducts championships in men's volleyball, as well as indoor track, gymnastics, and water polo for both men and women. In 2010 the MPSF added women's swimming and diving, and added those sports for men in the 2011–12 season. The 2012–13 school year was the last for MPSF competition in men's soccer, and the 2020–21 school year was the last for MPSF women's lacrosse.

The conference membership varies by sport; 48 schools are MPSF members in at least one of its sponsored sports. Schools are not required to participate in MPSF competition for a sponsored sport if their primary conference sponsors a competition in that sport (e.g. Pac-12 in soccer and women's gymnastics).

All MPSF members have a primary conference affiliation. Two conferences are represented by eight members each: the Big West Conference (Cal State Fullerton, Cal State Northridge, Hawai'i, Long Beach State, UC Davis, UC Irvine, UC Riverside, UC San Diego) and the West Coast Conference (Gonzaga, Pacific, Pepperdine, Portland, Saint Mary's, San Diego, San Francisco, Santa Clara). The Big Ten Conference is represented by five schools (Indiana, Oregon, UCLA, USC, Washington). The Pacific West Conference is represented by three schools (Concordia–Irvine, Menlo, Vanguard). Six conferences are represented by 2 schools: the Atlantic Coast Conference (California, Stanford), the Big 12 Conference (Arizona State, BYU), the California Collegiate Athletic Association (Cal Poly Humboldt, San Francisco State), the Mountain West Conference (Air Force and San Jose State), the Pac-12 Conference (Oregon State, Washington State), and the Western Athletic Conference (Grand Canyon and Southern Utah). Ten conferences are represented by one school each – the Allegheny Mountain Collegiate Conference (Penn State Behrend), the Big Sky Conference (Sacramento State), the College Conference of Illinois and Wisconsin (Augustana (IL)), the Great Northwest Athletic Conference (Alaska Anchorage), the Lone Star Conference (Texas Woman's), the New England Women's and Men's Athletic Conference (Wheaton (MA)), the Presidents' Athletic Conference (Washington & Jefferson), the Southeastern Conference (Oklahoma), the Southern Collegiate Athletic Conference (Austin), and the Southland Conference (Incarnate Word).

In 2025–26, the Big Sky Conference will be represented by three additional schools (Idaho, Northern Arizona, Northern Colorado); the SEC will also be represented by three additional schools (LSU, South Carolina, Texas); the WAC will be represented by two additional schools (California Baptist, Utah Tech); the ACC will also be represented by Florida State; the Southland Conference will also be represented by UTRGV; and Conference USA will be represented by New Mexico State. Grand Canyon's conference affiliation for 2025–26 is in flux; the Antelopes had initially announced a 2025 move to the West Coast Conference, but reneged on that move in favor of joining the Mountain West Conference no later than 2026.{{cite press release |url=https://gculopes.com/news/2024/11/1/general-gcu-accepts-invite-to-mountain-west-conference.aspx |title=GCU accepts invite to Mountain West Conference |publisher=Grand Canyon Antelopes |date=November 1, 2024 |access-date=November 1, 2024 |url-status=live }}

Due to the Big West addition of men's and women's swimming and diving as a sponsored sport beginning in the 2024–25 school year,{{Cite web |last=Writer |first=Matthew De George-Senior |date=2023-06-13 |title=Big West Approves Addition of Men’s and Women’s Swimming in 2024-25 |url=https://www.swimmingworldmagazine.com/news/big-west-approves-addition-of-mens-and-womens-swimming-in-2024-25/ |access-date=2024-05-13 |website=Swimming World News |language=en-US}} six Big West members moved their aquatics programs to their primary conference, including three members (Bakersfield, Cal Poly, and UC Santa Barbara) for whom aquatics comprised their only MPSF teams and thus effectively left the MPSF.

The MPSF added four sports in 2024–25—the non-NCAA sport of men's rowing,{{cite press release |url=https://mpsports.org/news/2024/12/4/mpsf-adds-mens-rowing-for-record-15th-sport.aspx |title=MPSF Adds Men's Rowing for Record 15th Sport |publisher=Mountain Pacific Sports Federation |date=December 5, 2024 |access-date=February 5, 2025}} the fully recognized NCAA sports of women's beach volleyball and men's wrestling, and the emerging NCAA sport of women's wrestling (which becomes a fully recognized NCAA sport in 2025–26).{{cite press release |url=https://mpsports.org/news/2024/9/4/mpsf-adds-mens-and-womens-wrestling.aspx |title=MPSF Adds Men's and Women's Wrestling |publisher=Mountain Pacific Sports Federation |date=September 6, 2024 |access-date=February 5, 2025}} The men's rowing league consists entirely of Division I members (California, Gonzaga, Oregon State, San Diego, Santa Clara, Stanford, UC San Diego, and Washington). By contrast, the wrestling leagues include only Division II members: Cal Poly Humboldt (men), Menlo (both), San Francisco State (men), and Vanguard (both).

The addition of swimming & diving by the Big West left the MPSF with only two men's and four women's teams in that sport. The MPSF started a rebuilding process in that sport by announcing on February 13, 2025 that it would add seven members for swimming & diving effective in 2025–26. At the time of announcement, all were housing swimming & diving in the Western Athletic Conference, which is rumored to be dropping the sport after the 2024–25 season. Six of the new members sponsor only the women's sport—Idaho, New Mexico State, Northern Arizona, Northern Colorado (returning to MPSF women's swimming & diving after a 13-year absence), Utah Tech, and UTRGV. The other new member, California Baptist, sponsors the sport for both sexes.{{cite news |url=https://swimswam.com/mpsf-adds-seven-programs-from-the-wac-for-2025-2026-season/ |title=MPSF Adds Seven Programs from the WAC for 2025-26 |first=Madeline |last=Folsom |website=SwimSwam.com |date=February 13, 2025 |access-date=February 14, 2025}}{{cite press release |url=https://mpsports.org/news/2025/2/13/swimming-diving-mpsf-swim-dive-adds-seven-schools-in-2025-26.aspx |title=MPSF Swim & Dive Adds Seven Schools in 2025-26 |publisher=Mountain Pacific Sports Federation |date=February 13, 2025 |access-date=February 14, 2025}} However, California Baptist will only compete in the MPSF in the 2025–26 season, as it will become a full Big West member in July 2026.{{cite press release |url=https://bigwest.org/news/2025/3/19/california-baptist-university-joins-the-big-west.aspx |title=California Baptist Joins The Big West |publisher=Big West Conference |date=March 19, 2025 |access-date=March 21, 2025}} The men's volleyball league will lose Grand Canyon after the spring 2025 season; the school is downgrading the sport from varsity to club status.{{cite press release |url=https://gculopes.com/news/2025/4/28/general-gcu-announces-sport-sponsorship-change.aspx |title=GCU announces sports sponsorship change |publisher=Grand Canyon Antelopes |date=April 28, 2025 |access-date=May 1, 2025}}

Al Beaird was the first Executive Director of the MPSF for 24 years, from 1998 to 2021. Foti Mellis became the second executive director on June 1, 2021. Mellis was a Senior Associate Athletic Director at the University of California.

Sports

The Mountain Pacific Sports Federation sponsors championship competition in six fully NCAA-sanctioned men's sports, five fully NCAA-sanctioned women's sports, one coeducational NCAA sport, one sport within the NCAA Emerging Sports for Women program, and two non-NCAA sports (one each for men and women).[http://www.mpsports.org Mountain Pacific Sports Federation - Athletics]. Mpsports.Org. Retrieved on July 17, 2013. The MPSF dropped men's soccer after the 2012 season. The moves of Denver (all sports) and New Mexico (soccer only) to other conferences left the MPSF with six soccer members, but all six would soon leave due to moves by the Western Athletic Conference. MPSF soccer member Seattle was already in the WAC, and another MPSF soccer school, CSU Bakersfield, was already committed to join the WAC in 2013. Because the WAC dropped football after the 2012 season due to a near-complete membership turnover, it needed to add another men's sport to maintain its Division I status. To that end, it invited the four remaining MPSF soccer schools to join them; all accepted, and the WAC began sponsoring men's soccer in 2013–14.{{cite press release |url=http://www.wacsports.com/ViewArticle.dbml?DB_OEM_ID=10100&ATCLID=205894860 |title=WAC Adds Men's Soccer |publisher=Western Athletic Conference |date=January 9, 2013 |access-date=April 20, 2013 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20130119075534/http://www.wacsports.com/ViewArticle.dbml?DB_OEM_ID=10100&ATCLID=205894860 |archive-date=January 19, 2013 |url-status=dead }}

In October 2015, Arizona State announced that it would elevate its club team in women's lacrosse to full varsity status starting in the 2017–18 school year (2018 season), which will give the Pac-12 six women's lacrosse schools. This number is required by league bylaws for official sponsorship of a sport, and is also the number of teams required for a conference to be an automatic NCAA tournament qualifier. This led the Pac-12 to announce that all of its women's lacrosse teams would leave the MPSF for the new Pac-12 lacrosse league for the 2018 season. MPSF women's lacrosse continued to operate through the 2021 season, though it would lose its automatic NCAA tournament bid after the 2019 season.{{cite web |url=http://laxmagazine.com/college_women/DI/2015-16/news/102315_pac_12_adds_womens_lacrosse_for_2018_season |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20151024150139/http://www.laxmagazine.com/college_women/DI/2015-16/news/102315_pac_12_adds_womens_lacrosse_for_2018_season |url-status=dead |archive-date=October 24, 2015 |title=Pac-12 Adds Women's Lacrosse for 2018 Season |publisher=Lacrosse Magazine |date=October 23, 2015 |access-date=February 6, 2016}}

The next major change in conference membership came in January 2016, when the Golden Coast Conference, a water polo-only league that previously operated only a women's competition, announced it would add a men's division effective with the 2016–17 season. The GCC took six of the 10 members of the MPSF men's water polo league, leaving the MPSF with only the four Pac-12 members that sponsor the sport.{{cite press release|url=http://www.gccwaterpolo.com/article/232.php |title=GCC Launches Men's Division To Begin Play in 2016 |publisher=Golden Coast Conference |date=January 21, 2016 |access-date=January 31, 2017}}

On May 31, 2016, the Big West Conference announced that it would begin sponsoring men's volleyball in the 2017–18 school year (2018 season). The Big West men's volleyball league launched with full members Long Beach State, Cal State Northridge, UC Irvine, UC Santa Barbara and Hawai'i, plus associate member UC San Diego (which joined the Big West full-time in July 2020). UC San Diego left the federation with the launch of Big West men's volleyball, but the other Big West members remain in the MPSF in other sports.{{cite web|title=Big West Conference Makes Men's Volleyball 18th Sponsored Sport|url=http://www.bigwest.org/story.asp?story_id=19222|publisher=Big West Conference|access-date=May 31, 2016}} California Baptist also exited the MPSF after dropping its only conference sport of men's volleyball shortly after the 2017 season, and Cal State Bakersfield (now being rebranded athletically as Bakersfield) left the MPSF after dropping its last remaining conference sport of women's water polo at the same time.{{cite press release |url=http://www.gorunners.com/ViewArticle.dbml?DB_LANG=C&DB_OEM_ID=13300&ATCLID=211637835 |title=CSUB Athletics Announces Strategic Shift in Resources |publisher=CSU Bakersfield Athletics |date=June 27, 2017 |access-date=July 12, 2017 }}{{Dead link|date=April 2020 |bot=InternetArchiveBot |fix-attempted=yes }}

It was announced in August 2021 that the MPSF would add fencing, a sport with a single coeducational NCAA team championship, to the conference as its tenth sport.{{Cite web|title=MPSF Adds Fencing in 2021-22 as 10th Sport|url=https://mpsports.org/news/2021/7/14/general-mpsf-adds-fencing-in-2022-as-10th-sport.aspx|access-date=October 4, 2021|website=MPSF |date=August 2, 2021 |language=en}}

It was announced in September 2021 that the MPSF would add women's artistic swimming to the conference as the eleventh sport.{{Cite web |date=September 16, 2021 |title=MPSF Adds Artistic Swimming in 2022 as Record-Tying 11th Sport |url=https://mpsports.org/news/2021/9/15/general-mpsf-adds-artistic-swimming-in-2022-as-record-tying-11th-sport.aspx |url-status=live |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20230429194656/https://mpsports.org/news/2021/9/15/general-mpsf-adds-artistic-swimming-in-2022-as-record-tying-11th-sport.aspx |archive-date=Apr 29, 2023 |website=MPSF}}

On November 9, 2023, the MPSF announced that it would add beach volleyball, a women-only sport at the NCAA level, for the 2025 season (2024–25 school year). The inaugural membership in that sport consisted mainly of schools that left the Pac-12 Conference, which sponsored beach volleyball, after 2023–24: California, Oregon, Stanford, UCLA, USC, and Washington. The only member not coming from the Pac-12 was Grand Canyon.{{cite press release |url=https://mpsports.org/news/2023/11/3/general-mpsf-adds-beach-volleyball-as-record-setting-12th-sport.aspx |title=MPSF Adds Beach Volleyball as Record-Setting 12th Sport |publisher=Mountain Pacific Sports Federation |date=November 9, 2023 |access-date=November 11, 2023 |url-status=live |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20231111091116/https://mpsports.org/news/2023/11/3/general-mpsf-adds-beach-volleyball-as-record-setting-12th-sport.aspx |archive-date=November 11, 2023 }} The following month, the MPSF announced that Saint Mary's, which had been an MPSF member in women's lacrosse before the school dropped the sport in 2017, had returned to the conference in women's indoor track & field.{{cite press release |url=https://mpsports.org/news/2023/11/28/st-marys-to-compete-in-mpsf-indoor-track-field.aspx |title=St. Mary's to Compete in MPSF Women's Indoor Track & Field |publisher=Mountain Pacific Sports Federation |date=December 7, 2023 |access-date=December 26, 2023 |url-status=live |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20231227001509/https://mpsports.org/news/2023/11/28/st-marys-to-compete-in-mpsf-indoor-track-field.aspx |archive-date= Dec 27, 2023 }} The MPSF later announced it would also add the non-NCAA sport of men's rowing, plus men's and women's wrestling, in 2024–25.

The MPSF announced in February 2025 that it would add four beach volleyball members and seven swimming & diving members in 2025–26. Of the new swim/dive members, six field only women's teams and one fields teams for both men and women.{{cite press release |url=https://mpsports.org/news/2025/2/6/mpsf-beach-volleyball-adds-four-teams-in-26.aspx |title=MPSF Beach Volleyball Adds Four Teams in '26 |publisher=Mountain Pacific Sports Federation |date=February 6, 2025 |access-date=February 23, 2025}} However, the school that fields teams for both sexes, California Baptist, will only compete in the MPSF for one season, after which it becomes a full Big West member.

Aquatics

Two aquatics disciplines are sponsored under the aquatics section, with swimming & diving sponsored for both men and women since 2010–11 and the women-only discipline of artistic swimming added in 2021–22. A third discipline, open water swimming, was added for both men and women in 2023–24, but is not sponsored as a conference sport, instead being a de facto national championship meet open to all NCAA members. The MPSF was the first NCAA conference to sponsor open water swimming.{{cite press release |url=https://mpsports.org/news/2025/4/11/open-water-swimming-third-edition-of-mpsf-open-water-championships.aspx |title=Third Edition of MPSF Open Water Championships |publisher=Mountain Pacific Sports Federation |date=April 11, 2025 |access-date=April 18, 2025}}

In June 2023, the Big West announced the addition of men's and women's swimming and diving as a sponsored sport beginning in the 2024–25 school year. As a result, six Big West members moved their aquatics programs to their primary conference, including three members (Bakersfield, Cal Poly, and UC Santa Barbara) who were only MPSF members in aquatics and thus effectively left the MPSF.

The MPSF will lose one member (San Diego to the Big West{{cite press release |url=https://bigwest.org/news/2024/9/23/swimming-diving-the-big-west-adds-three-affiliates-in-swimming-and-diving-gcu-seattleu-san-diego.aspx |title=The Big West Adds Three Affiliates in Swimming and Diving |publisher=Big West Conference |date=September 23, 2024 |access-date=March 13, 2025}}) and add seven members in swimming & diving in 2025–26. Of the new members, six are joining for the women's sport only and the other with both men's and women's teams. One of these schools had previously housed the women's sport in the MPSF.

Gymnastics

Men's gymnastics was introduced as an MPSF sport with the formation of the conference while women's gymnastics was initiated for the 2001–02 season.

=Current members=

The MPSF currently has four members that participate in men's gymnastics and four for women's. One of the current women's gymnastics members, UC Davis, will join the Mountain West Conference, which sponsors that sport, in 2026. However, the Aggies may stay in MPSF women's gymnastics because the MW will lose two of its current four women's gymnastics members to the reconfigured Pac-12 Conference in 2026, making future MW sponsorship of the sport uncertain.

Volleyball

Men's volleyball was introduced for the 1993 season (1992–93 school year) as one of the conference's inaugural sports. The MPSF will add beach volleyball in the 2025 season (2024–25 school year). The MPSF added the sport in the wake of the collapse of the Pac-12 Conference, which saw 10 of its 12 members leave for other conferences after the 2023–24 school year. Of the 10 departing schools, nine sponsor beach volleyball. Three left for the Big 12 Conference, which announced it would start sponsoring beach volleyball in 2024–25.{{cite press release |url=https://big12sports.com/news/2023/11/9/conference-big-12-to-add-beach-volleyball-womens-lacrosse.aspx |title=Big 12 to Add Beach Volleyball & Women's Lacrosse |publisher=Big 12 Conference |date=November 9, 2023 |access-date=November 11, 2023}} The other six, which joined either the Atlantic Coast Conference or the Big Ten Conference, made up almost all of the inaugural MPSF beach volleyball membership. California, Stanford, UCLA, and USC were already MPSF members in other sports, and Oregon and Washington were returning MPSF members. The only inaugural beach volleyball member not arriving from the Pac-12 is Grand Canyon.

After the spring 2025 season, the MPSF will add four more beach volleyball members—Florida State, LSU, South Carolina, and Texas. All are departing the Coastal Collegiate Sports Association. However, its men's division will lose Grand Canyon, which is downgrading the sport to club status.
