The WCC has continued to prove itself as one of the strongest collegiate baseball conferences in the country. Pepperdine was the league's automatic qualifier to the NCAA Regionals in 1991 while LMU represented the WCC in 1990. Both teams appeared at the NCAA's in 1989. Other conference members include the University of San Diego, the University of San Francisco, Santa Clara University and St. Mary's College. Pepperdine has won the WCC crown in six of the last seven years and has won or shared every conference title but one since 1974. Baseball was originally established as a conference sport in 1968. However, from 1977 through 1984, WCC teams com- peted with teams from the PCAA in the Northern California Baseball Association (Nevada, St. Mary's, San Francisco, Santa Clara, Pacific, San Jose State, Fresno State), and the Southern California Baseball Association (Pepperdine, Loyola Marymount, and San Diego from the WCC). For the first time this year, the WCC will play a 30-game round robin schedule with the league champion receiving the WCC's automatic bid to the NCAA playoffs. wee STAFF
