SAN RAMON, CA --- California Baptist University (CBU) has been named one of 12 new affiliate members of the Pac-12 Conference. The Lancers, already announced as a Pac-12 member in men's soccer, will also call the conference its home for women's swim, beginning with the 2026-27 season.
Â
CBU will be one of five schools competing in the Pac-12 in swimming this year. The Lancers are joined by Colorado State, Fresno State, San Diego State, and Washington State.
Â
"I am very excited to have CBU Women's Swim join the revamped Pac-12 Conference," said head coach Jim Bossert. "It is an honor to join such a prestigious and historically rich conference, especially in swimming. Our ladies cannot wait to get back to competition and represent CBU at the highest level."
Â
Women's Swim makes the jump to the Pac-12 after competing in the Mountain Pacific Sports Federation (MPSF) last season. The Lancers placed fourth at the MPSF Conference Tournament and finished the meet with ten All-MPSF finishes on the women's side.
Â
The revitalized Pac-12 Conference sponsors 19 sports. The conference features nine full members and adds 12 affiliate members across five Olympic sports. CBU will compete in the Pac-12 in both women's swim and men's soccer, with the soccer team competing in the conference as part of a partnership with the Big West and Pac-12.
Â
CBU will compete in its first Pac-12 championship in the spring, as the 2027 Pac-12 Swimming & Diving Championship will be held February 24 – 27 in Houston, TX.
