The Wisconsin Collegiate Conference (WCC) was a collegiate athletic conference made up primarily of the branch campuses of the Universities of Wisconsin as well as one private college. The conference sponsored men's and women's basketball, women's volleyball, co-ed soccer, men's tennis, and men's golf.[1][2] All schools were junior colleges and athletes were only eligible for two years.
In 2020, after all schools suspended athletic events due to the COVID-19 pandemic, the WCC went on hiatus. Ahead of the 2021–22 season, the satellite campuses of UW-Green Bay, UW-Oshkosh, and UW-Stevens Point formed a new conference, the Wisconsin Competitive Sports League.[3]
The WCC returned for the 2023–24 season, with only the Oshkosh, Stevens Point, Whitewater, and Platteville campuses returning (apart from Platteville's Richland campus, which closed in 2023). The only sports that returned were volleyball and men's basketball.[4] The junior varsity men's basketball squad at Bryant & Stratton College's Wisconsin campuses also joined, becoming the first campus outside the UW System to join the conference.[5]
Following the season, the league quietly folded as UW-Oshkosh's Fond du Lac campus closed, while Whitewater's Rock County campus left for the NJCAA and added more sports.[6] Among the other final members, Stevens Point at Wausau disbanded their athletic program as they prepared to move operations to Northcentral Technical College,[7] Oshkosh's Fox Cities campus closed in 2025, and Stevens Point at Marshfield and Platteville Baraboo Sauk County joined other Wisconsin schools to re-form the Wisconsin Competitive Sports League.[8][9]
