Big Eight Conference (California)

The Big Eight Conference was a junior college athletic conference with member schools located in the San Francisco Bay Area and Central California that operated from 1950 to 1962. The conference began operation as the Big Seven Conference for the 1950–51 basketball season. The conference's initial seven members were Modesto Junior College, Sacramento City College, City College of San Francisco (CCSF), the College of San Mateo, Santa Rosa Junior College, Stockton College—now known as San Joaquin Delta College, and West Contra Costa Junior College—now known as Contra Costa College. Oakland City College joined as the league's eighth member for the 1954–55 basketball season. The Big Eight Conference dissolved in 1962. Four of its members—CCSF, Contra Costa, Oakland City, and San Mateo—joined the newly-formed Golden Gate Conference.
