The UC San Diego Tritons are the athletic teams that represent the University of California, San Diego. UC San Diego has 23 varsity sports teams and offers student participation in a wide range of sports. As of July 1, 2020, all UC San Diego teams participate at the NCAA Division I (DI) level in the Big West Conference. During their time in NCAA Division II and the California Collegiate Athletic Association starting in the 2000–01 season, UCSD placed in the top 5 in the Division II NACDA Directors' Cup standings nine times, including three 2nd-place finishes. NCSA Athletic Recruiting ranked the Tritons as the nation's top Division II program for eight consecutive years.[2]

In May 2016, UCSD students voted to transition all sports teams to the NCAA Division I level. On November 27, 2017, it was announced that UCSD would begin the transition to NCAA Division I and join the Big West Conference on July 1, 2020.[3][4]

Nickname[]

The UC San Diego official team nickname is the "Tritons."[5]

History[]

Move to Division I[]

In 2010, UCSD considered elevating its athletics to NCAA Division I for all sports. They were looking to join the Big West Conference. However, there were several problems. After the Big West added the University of Hawaii in 2010, they would have 10 teams, meaning any extra member would require more conference games in basketball, upsetting the current schedule balance. In addition, in order to meet the minimum Division I scholarship requirements, the student body would need to vote for a fee increase sometime during the 2011–2012 academic year. After the Big West elected not to invite UCSD in May 2011, plans were put on hold and UCSD remained a Division II team.[6] However, a student-led movement resulted in a vote on a fee increase for UCSD students in the hopes to enhance the school's chances of becoming a Division I school.[7] In March 2012, the UCSD student body rejected an increase in activity fees to support the move to Division I. The vote fell 11,407 to 6,470 (51% of the student body voted).

In January 2016, Associated Students UC San Diego unanimously approved the wording of a new Division I referendum.[8] In May, UCSD undergraduates voted to increase athletic fees by $480 per year and transition UCSD athletics to Division I.[9] The fee increase will fund the athletic scholarships required for NCAA Division I schools.[10] The move was approved by the UCSD Academic Senate in December 2016.[11] UCSD's move remains contingent upon an invitation to join the Big West Conference.[12]

In a separate move by the Big West Conference to sponsor men's volleyball, Big West teams from the MPSF split to join their own conference that includes UC San Diego as an affiliate member starting in the 2017–18 school year (2018 season). The Tritons' joining the Big West as an affiliate for men's volleyball was not an indicator that the Tritons would be accepted as a full member yet since UC San Diego had long played the sport in the MPSF at a Division I level and was part of the original coalition talks with the Big West to split from MPSF men's volleyball.

Early in April 2017, the San Diego Tribune reported that the Big West had rejected UCSD's application to join the conference. The Big West commission overseeing new members into the conference consists of the Presidents and Chancellors of every member school. There has not been a formal public confirmation of the rejection, but UCSD may still attempt to make moves to join the Big West or another conference (such as the Western Athletic Conference) until its 2018 deadline set by the referendum.

However, on November 27, 2017, UCSD was accepted and officially started the journey towards the Big West conference along with Cal State Bakersfield. UCSD's women's water polo team joined the Big West in 2019, and UCSD began the required four year transition period on July 1, 2020 to be a full member on July 1, 2024.[3]

A member of the Big West Conference, UC San Diego sponsors teams in ten men's, eleven women's, and one coed NCAA sanctioned sports. The school also sponsors a varsity men's rowing team, but men's rowing is not sanctioned by the NCAA.[13] The rowing teams are members of the Western Intercollegiate Rowing Association. The men's water polo team is a member of the Western Water Polo Association. The fencing team is a member of the Intercollegiate Fencing Conference of Southern California. Men's volleyball and women's water polo both compete in the Big West Conference, with the former joining that league in 2017 and the latter in 2019, ahead of the school becoming a full member of the Big West on July 1, 2020 and beginning the transition to Division I.

From Fall 2000 to Spring 2017, UC San Diego teams competed primarily in the California Collegiate Athletic Association. The school was awarded the Hiegert Commissioner's Trophy (awarded to the CCAA school with the highest aggregate ranking in eight sports) seven times—five consecutive years from 2006–2010 and again in 2016 and 2017.[14] National champions are highlighted in bold and italicized.

Football[]

UC San Diego has not fielded a football team except in Fall 1968 when a newly formed pigskin organization turned in a winless season and then folded for lack of interest.[38] Since then, the subject of bringing NCAA football back to UC San Diego has been a recurring topic. Tom Ham, a local restaurateur and a supporter of UCSD football since the 1960s, has said that UCSD would have no future in San Diego without "big-time" football.[39] Proponents of a major football team have projected benefits that include greater school spirit and a more well-rounded school experience for students as well as enhancing the school's national profile.[40] Opposition to "big-time" football comes from a wide range of school faculty and administrators such Daniel Wulbert, Revelle College provost, who says that any boost to school spirit wouldn't be worth the sacrifice, and that he wants UC San Diego to "have a life for reasons other than watching hired athletes come and play."[41] Both sides acknowledge that adding an 80- to 100-man[42] football team would not only cost some US$1–1.5M annually, but that the initial outlay in equipment and facilities would be in the tens of millions.[43] Furthermore, in order to comply with Title IX's requirement for equal sports opportunities for both sexes, some three women's teams (80–100 athletes) would have to be added, or three existing men's teams disbanded.[43] Without the expense of football, UC San Diego has been characterized as having "the best all-around program, with the most success by the most student-athletes" in San Diego.[41]
