UVU Athletics - Orem Utah
Spectator Sports in Orem UT
Wolverine athletics are a highlight of campus life and a source of school pride for both students and the community. The University’s 8,500-seat UCCU Arena is home to both men’s and women’s basketball, and a baseball facility adjacent to I-15 is home to Wolverine baseball as well as the Orem Owlz, a minor league affiliate to the Los Angeles Angels of Anaheim.
At UVU, spectators enjoy the University’s 13 competitive sports including the only collegiate wrestling team in Utah. There are also more than 25 intramural sports teams and many club teams for students to participate in.
In 2009, NCAA Membership Services notified UVU that the governing body for collegiate athletics unanimously approved UVU's acceptance as an official member of NCAA Division I. The move came after a seven-year provisional period and completed UVU's unprecedented move straight from NJCAA to the top level of NCAA competition. Utah Valley, with an enrollment of 33,000, became the first institution to leap to Division I directly from junior college status.
Utah Valley University joined the Great West Conference in 2008 to start competition in 2009. The Great West Conference was made up of 10 intercollegiate institutions that ranged geographically from Utah and New Jersey to Texas and California.
In late 2012, UVU accepted the invitation to join the Western Athletic Conference (WAC). Beginning in July of 2013, fourteen of the Wolverines’ 15 intercollegiate sports – all except wrestling – began competing in the WAC.
“It’s a great opportunity for our school,” Utah Valley athletic director Mike Jacobsen said. “We’ve worked long and hard for the past five years to bring this to fruition. The WAC has always been No. 1 on our list. We’ve always wanted to be a part of them.”
