Biographical notes:

Intercollegiate Athletics dates back to 1893 when the first UW football team was created. Basketball was formed in 1904, and sports such as boxing, wrestling, fencing, and gymnastics were formed after World War I. During the 1930s and 1940s, swimming, skiing, track, golf, baseball, and tennis were started. Up until the 1960s, intercollegiate sports were played in the Mountain States Athletic Conference. During the 1960s, the conference was reformed and renamed the Western Athletic Conference. In 1999, the Mountain West Conference was created and Wyoming became a part of it.
