KANSAS — The Kansas Collegiate Athletic Conference (KCAC) has begun a new series to highlight "All-Time" teams from each of our fourteen full-member institutions. By "All-Time," we mean historic teams from each institution, nominated by each athletic department. How each team symbolizes being "historic" for their institution can run the gamut from:
- Championship teams (either at the KCAC or NAIA level)
- Teams with non-championship significance to the KCAC or NAIA
- Teams with particular significance to the institution
- Teams that broke records or hit major statistical landmarks
- Teams that broke a cultural barrier
- And more! We're giving institutions the autonomy to decide what they think makes a team historic or "all-time."
