The Big Eight Conference sponsored championships in 21 sports (11 men's and 10 women's) at various times during its existence from 1907 to 1996.[1] The conference began sponsoring women's sports in the mid-1970s under the direction of Assistant Commissioner Steven J. Hatchell.
Due to its common history with the Missouri Valley Conference, Big Eight championships from the 1907–08 through the 1927–28 academic year are also claimed by the MVC.
