EST ATHLETIC CONFERENCE

With members in five states and the province of British Columbia, and with a strong presence in or near the largest

city of each, the Great Northwest Athletic Conference has estab-lished itself as one of the top NCAA Division II athletic confer-ences in the nation during its 11-year history . Founded in 2001, GNAC teams have had a remarkable 71 NCAA Division II top 10 national team finishes in 14 of the 16 sports it sponsors . The 2012-13 academic year was another banner season for the league, highlighted by top-4 NCAA finishes for UAA’s men’s cross country team (3rd), Simon Fraser’s men’s soccer team, and Western Washington’s basketball squads . Along with later additions Montana State Billings (2007) and Simon Fraser (2010), the GNAC is comprised of charter mem-

bers Alaska Anchorage, Alaska Fairbanks, Central Washington, Northwest Nazarene, Saint Martin’s, Seattle Pacific, Western Oregon and Western Washington . In the last six years, the GNAC has produced two national team titles (2009 SPU women’s soccer, 2012 WWU men’s bas-ketball), three national runner-up finishes, six NCAA Final 4 bas-ketball appearances (including three by UAA), and top-5 NCAA cross country placings by both SPU and UAA (both men and women’s squads) . UAA sponsors nine of the GNAC’s 14 sports – volleyball, men’s and women’s basketball, men’s and women’s cross coun-try, men’s and women’s indoor track & field, and men’s and women’s outdoor track & field .
