    8TH ANNUAL GREAT NORTHWEST ATHLETIC CONFERENCE CROSS COUNTRY CHAMPIONSHIPS Saturday, Oct. 25, 2008 Hosted by Central Washington University Apple Ridge Run Cross Country Facility (Yakima, WA) Men: 10 a.m. Women: 11 a.m. GREAT NORTHWEST ATHLETIC CONFERENCE The Great Northwest Athletic Conference, which is in its eighth season of athletic competition, is comprised of nine NCAA Division II schools. The nine schools are located in five different states, including four in the state of Washington: Central Washington University, Saint Martin’s University, Seattle Pacific University and Western Washington University. The GNAC, which was officially founded on July 1, 2001, also includes the University of Alaska Anchorage, the University of Alaska Fairbanks, Montana State University Billings, Northwest Nazarene University (Idaho) and Western Oregon University. Humboldt State University (Calif.) and Seattle University were charter members of the conference but left following the 2005-06 and 2007-08 seasons, respectively. MSU Billings joined the GNAC last fall. Prior to the formation of the GNAC, all the current and past members were members of the PacWest Conference. Four of the schools in the conference - Alaska Anchorage, Alaska Fairbanks, Montana State Billings and Seattle Pacific – were charter members of the PacWest, which was created in May, 1992 with the merger of the Great Northwest Conference and the Continental Divide Conference. Four current GNAC members - Central Washington, Saint Martin’s, Western Oregon and Western Washington – joined the PacWest prior to the 1998-99 season. Central Washington, Saint Martin’s and Western Washington were previously members of the Pacific Northwest Athletic Conference, while Western Oregon was a member of the Cascade Conference.
