The UC Davis Aggies (also referred to as Cal Aggies or Ags) represent the University of California, Davis in NCAA Division I sports in the Big West Conference. For football, the Aggies compete in Division I FCS (formerly known as Division I-AA), and are members of the Big Sky Conference, granting UC Davis the distinction of being one of only three UC campuses to field a football team (Cal and UCLA being the other two). The Aggies are also members of the Mountain Pacific Sports Federation in women's gymnastics and women's lacrosse, the America East Conference in field hockey, and the Western Intercollegiate Rowing Association in men's rowing. The Aggies' achievements in Division II motivated a decision (following a year of heavy discussion by campus administrators, faculty, staff, students, alumni and the local community) in 2003 for the athletics program to reclassify to Division I.〔(【引用サイトリンク】 title= UC Davis Takes to NCAA Division I Playing Field )〕〔(【引用サイトリンク】 title= UC Davis Timeline: The Road to Division I )〕 Aggie Stadium is the home of the UC Davis football and lacrosse teams.
