Seven universities from the state of California have come to agreement to form a new collegiate women's water polo conference that will begin competition in the spring of 2014. The new league, which will be called the Golden Coast Conference, will feature Azusa Pacific University, California Baptist University, Fresno Pacific University, Loyola Marymount University, San Diego State University, Santa Clara University and University of the Pacific. The Golden Coast Conference will begin competition next season and will feature a conference schedule in which each team will play each other once. The final conference standings will then decide seedings for an annual conference championship, which will be held in late April. The new league will apply for an automatic bid to the NCAA Women's Water Polo Championship this summer. In addition, the membership is currently searching for a commissioner and drafting league bylaws. San Diego State and the University of the Pacific are moving from the Big West Conference while LMU and Santa Clara are moving from the Western Water Polo Association. California Baptist just completed its transition to the NCAA and are eligible for championship competition this upcoming 2013-14 season, while Azusa Pacific and Fresno Pacific are making the transition to the NCAA and will be eligible the following season. In the 2014 season, San Diego State University won each of the Conference match ups, while Loyola Marymount University claimed the 2014 Conference championship title after beating San Diego State 8-7 in overtime. In the 2015 season, San Diego State once again won the regular season title, but lost to Loyola Marymount University in the 2015 Conference tournament championship title, defeating the Aztecs 9-5. ==Members== *Reclassifying institution in yellow. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Golden Coast Conference」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
