Columbia Valley Conference

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

The Columbia Valley Conference (also known as the Columbia Valley Intercollegiate Conference) was an intercollegiate athletic conference composed of member schools located in the states of Idaho, Oregon, and Washington that operated from 1920 to 1929. Originally called the Spokane Intercollegiate Conference, the conference was founded in 1920 with four charter members: Eastern Washington College of Education (now known as Eastern Washington University), Spokane College, Spokane University, and Whitworth College (now known as Whitworth University. The conference changed its name to Columbia Valley Intercollegiate Conference in October 1923.[1] In December 1923, the conference admitted two new members: Columbia College of Milton, Oregon, and Lewiston State Normal School—now known as Lewis–Clark State College.[2]
