2. 1Integrity | Tradition | Academic Excellence | LONE STAR CONFERENCE | Community | Respect | Commitment
ong known as a leader in intercollegiate athletics, the Lone Star Conference™ (LSC) is an
innovative athletics conference that aims to provide a superior competitive experience
for member institutions and to allow for comprehensive development of student-athletes
through academic services and life skills programming. The LSC continues to build upon its proud
history while intending to be recognized as the premier NCAA Division II conference in the nation.
The league’s mission is to foster student participation and success among member institutions
in NCAA Division II intercollegiate athletics as an integral part of each institution’s total educational
program. The LSC shall pursue student-athlete development with highest regard to the principles
of academic excellence, graduation success, sportsmanship, ethical conduct, resourcefulness,
community service, gender equity, and diversity.
The LSC - founded on April 25, 1931 - has developed from a five-team conference of Texas-based
schools to an 11-member league that spans three states (Texas, Oklahoma and New Mexico).
The league continues to assist its member institutions in the maintenance of intercollegiate
athletic programs that are compatible with the highest standards of education and competitive
sports.
Throughout the league’s 86-year history, various institutions have competed under the LSC
banner. Today, only Texas A&M University-Commerce (then East Texas State) remains from the
originalgroupthatwasformedin1931whenNorthTexasState,SouthwestTexasState,SamHouston
State and Stephen F. Austin withdrew from the old Texas Intercollegiate Athletic Association.
The membership alignment has changed over the years, with current members added from
1954 to 2016. Texas A&M-Kingsville (formerly Texas A&I) joined in 1954, and Angelo State in 1968.
Conference membership remained within the Texas borders until 1984 when Eastern New
Mexico was admitted. Since then, the LSC has included members from Arkansas and Oklahoma.
Cameron (1988, 1996) was added near the outset of an expansion phase, while Texas Woman’s
(1989) and previous members West Texas A&M (1986, 1993) and Tarleton State (1968, 1994)
joined the league soon after.
Midwestern State was admitted early in 1995, while Incarnate Word joined the league in 2010.
Harding reconnected with the league as an affiliate member in track and field from 2013-15, and
McMurry was an affiliate member in indoor and outdoor track and field, and football in 2014.
UT Permian Basin and Western New Mexico were added to the league in 2016, while Lubbock
Christian joined as an affiliate member in indoor and outdoor track and field that same year.
Oklahoma Panhandle State was an affiliate member in football in 2016.
Past members of the LSC include Trinity, Houston, Lamar, Howard Payne, Sul Ross State,
McMurry, Harding, Ouachita Baptist, Central Oklahoma, East Central (Okla.), Northeastern State
(Okla.), Southeastern Oklahoma, Southwestern Oklahoma, Abilene Christian and Incarnate Word.
While the LSC has maintained a long-standing tradition of competitive athletic programs
for its members, many teams and individuals have gone on to distinguish themselves on the
national stage. Entering 2017-18, LSC member institutions have collected 76 NCAA team national
championships since the league joined the Division II membership in 1982.
The LSC conducts conference championships in 17 sports (eight men and nine women). Men’s
championships include football, cross country, basketball, baseball, indoor track and field, outdoor
track and field, golf and tennis. Women’s titles are determined in volleyball, soccer, cross country,
basketball, softball, indoor track and field, outdoor track and field, tennis and golf.
The conference office is located in Richardson, Texas, a northern suburb of Dallas. Jay Poerner
serves as Commissioner, with assistance from Melanie Robotham (Media Relations), Danielle
Anderson (Compliance) and Cheryl Scott (Business).

coaches and sports information directors, plus various media
representatives from throughout the region.
A&M-C, who claimed its third straight LSC title with an 8-1 league
record last season, earned first place votes on 21 of the 26 ballots
to total 229 points. The Lions were 10-2 in 2016 including a NCAA
Division II playoff appearance.
Midwestern State received two first-place nods to finish second
with 192 points following an 8-3 campaign last season.
Texas A&M-Kingsville ranked third with 177 points in front of
Eastern New Mexico (136) and Tarleton State (135). Angelo State
(114), West Texas A&M (97), Western New Mexico (45) and UT
Permian Basin (45) rounded out the poll.
TAMUK, TSU and UTPB each collected one of the remaining first-
place votes.
The season kicks off August 31 and the LSC has nine teams set
to compete in 2017. Each team will play eight conference games

Four LSC teams participated in postseason play last season, with
