An Introduction to Simpson Athletics

Simpson Began its intercollegiate athletic program with a men’s basketball team in the 1950’s. Today The Simpson University athletic program has a dual membership in the National Association of Intercollegiate Athletics ( NAIA) and the National Christian College Athletic Association (NCCAA). We compete in the California Pacific Conference and compete in the sports of Men’s and Women’s Soccer, Men’s and Women’s Cross Country, Women’s Volleyball, Men’s and Women’s Basketball, Baseball, Softball ( 08/09) and Men’s and Women’s Golf ( 08/09).

Simpson University athletics started in the 1950’s and now is going to be comprised of 11 sports in the 2008/2009 season. Playing in the Cal Pac conference gives Simpson one of the biggest NAIA conferences to compete in. The Cal-Pac conference is composed of Bethany University, Menlo College, William Jessup University, Dominican University, Holy Names University, Mills College, Cal State East Bay, Pacific Union College, and Cal State Maritime.

On and off the playing court/field we strive to show our good work ethic and character. Simpson has won numerous times the Cal Pac Sportsmanship award which is awarded by the conferences coaches and administrators.

Simpson University has had two National Champion teams and the 2007/2008 season looks to be the most productive overall for the athletic Department in the history of the school.
