Idaho joins Big West as an affiliate member in men's golf
MOSCOW — The University of Idaho has accepted an invitation to join the Big West (formerly called the Big West Conference) in men's golf, beginning with the 2024-25 season.
Idaho joins Sacramento State in joining the Big West after the Big Sky Conference dropped men's golf after falling to just four teams. It was announced last week that Weber State and Northern Colorado would join the Summit League.
Idaho was a full member of the Big West from 1996 to 2005. The Vandals won the Big West men's golf title in 2000 and had two other top-three finishes.
The Big West hosts its annual championship at the La Quinta Country Club in La Quinta, Calif., near Palm Springs.
