Sunshine State Conference
THE Sunshine State Conference
Founded in March of 1975, the
Sunshine State Conference has
risen from a single-sport
organization to become the NCAA
Division II “Conference of
C h a m p i o n s .” S t a r t e d a s a
basketball conference, The SSC
has since grown steadily in sports
played, membership and national
prominence. A weekly check of
national rankings in nearly any
Division II sport proves the point, as
SSC member institutions
consistently find themselves ranked
amongst the nation’s elite.
Now with nine full members, the
SSC is the proud owner of some 67
NCAA Division II National
Championships in baseball, men’s
basketball, men’s and women’s
golf, softball, men’s and women’s
tennis, men’s and women’s soccer
and volleyball. The Orlando-based
league recently added to its already
full trophy case with Rollins College
capturing their fourth consecutive
women’s golf title and the
University of Tampa claming their
fourth baseball national
championship.
The SSC currently crowns regularseason
champions in volleyball,
men’s and women’s soccer, men’s
and women’s basketball, baseball
and softball. The league also
administers season-ending
tournaments in men’s and women’s
soccer, men’s and women’s
basketball, men’s and women’s
golf, men’s and women’s tennis and
women’s rowing.
