The Atlantic Sun Conference, branded since the 2016–17 school year as the ASUN Conference, is a collegiate athletic conference operating mostly in the Southeastern United States. The league participates at the NCAA Division I level, and does not sponsor football. Originally established as the Trans America Athletic Conference (TAAC) in 1978,^[1] its headquarters are located in Macon, Georgia.

The most recent change in the ASUN membership came in 2015–16, when Northern Kentucky University (transitioning from NCAA Division II sports to Division I) left the conference to join the Horizon League^[2] and was replaced by the New Jersey Institute of Technology (NJIT), previously the only Division I basketball independent.^[3] Northern Kentucky had replaced Belmont University, which moved to the Ohio Valley Conference (OVC);^[4] this maintained the membership roster at 10 schools. The 2014 departure of East Tennessee State University and Mercer University to the Southern Conference left the ASUN with its current membership number of eight.

Notes

School names and nicknames listed here reflect those used during the schools' time in the TAAC/ASUN. One school has changed both its name and nickname, and three others have changed only their nicknames:

↑ Oklahoma City adopted its current nickname of Stars in 1999.
↑ Pan American adopted its final name of the University of Texas–Pan American in 1989. In 2015, it merged with the University of Texas at Brownsville to form the new University of Texas Rio Grande Valley (UTRGV).
↑ UTRGV inherited UTPA's athletic program, with the nickname being changed from Broncs to Vaqueros. UTRGV also inherited UTPA's membership in the Western Athletic Conference.
1 2 Northeast Louisiana adopted its current name of the University of Louisiana at Monroe in 1999. The school adopted its current nickname of Warhawks in 2006, when it joined the Sun Belt Conference.
↑ Nicholls State was a provisional member, and as such was never a full member of the TAAC.
↑ FIU dropped the word "Golden" from its nickname in 2010, becoming simply the Panthers.
↑ UCF dropped the word "Golden" from its nickname in 2007, becoming simply the Knights.

↑ The Midwestern City Conference is now known as the Horizon League.
↑ Although the Sun Belt Conference competes in football at the Division I FBS level, Little Rock does not sponsor the sport.
↑ The CAA began an FCS-level football league in 2007, but Georgia State did not sponsor the sport until 2010. It began a transition from FCS to FBS in 2013, and joined the FBS Sun Belt Conference in 2014.
↑ Although the Southland Conference competes in football at the Division I FCS level, UTSA did not sponsor the sport until 2011. It never competed in the Southland Conference in football; it started a two-year transition to FBS in 2011, joined the WAC in 2012, and joined Conference USA (C-USA) in 2013.
1 2 Although both the Southern Conference and CAA compete in football at the Division I FCS level, Charleston has never sponsored the sport.
↑ Florida Atlantic joined the Sun Belt for football in the 2005 season before becoming an all-sports member in 2006.
↑ Troy became a Sun Belt football member in 2004, a year before it became an all-sports member.
↑ Campbell is a full member of the Big South, but does not participate in the Big South’s football conference. The school operates a non-scholarship FCS program in the Pioneer Football League.
↑ Although the OVC competes in football at the Division I FCS level, Belmont does not sponsor the sport.^[7]
↑ ETSU, which had left the SoCon to join the ASUN in 2005 after dropping football in 2003. The Buccaneers returned to the SoCon as part of relaunching the dormant football program in 2014; football began play in 2015 as an FCS independent, with SoCon football membership following in 2016.
↑ Mercer joined the SoCon after the football program, which last played a game in 1941, signed its first players in 2012, with full play beginning in 2013.

Membership timeline

Northeast Louisiana became the University of Louisiana at Monroe (Louisiana–Monroe) in 1999.
Pan American, later known as Texas–Pan American or UTPA, merged with the University of Texas at Brownsville in 2015 to create the new University of Texas Rio Grande Valley (UTRGV). The new school inherited UTPA's athletic program.

Sports sponsored

The ASUN sponsors championship competition in eight men's and eleven women's NCAA sanctioned sports.^[8]

In 2008, the ASUN, in an agreement with the Southern Conference (SoCon), Mid-Eastern Athletic Conference (MEAC), and Big South Conference, formed the Coastal Collegiate Swimming Association (CCSA) for schools sponsoring men's and women's swimming and diving within the associated conferences. For the past several years, the ASUN's Commissioner has served as the president of what was initially a swimming & diving-only conference. In 2014 the CCSA expanded to include several other schools from other conferences, and the following year the conference added beach volleyball (women-only at the NCAA level) as a sponsored sport, changing its name to the Coastal Collegiate Sports Association. Currently the conference has 22 member schools, with eight men's swimming and diving teams, 11 women's swimming & diving teams, and eight beach volleyball teams.^[9]

The most recent change to the roster of ASUN sports took place after the 2013–14 school year. Under a cooperative agreement between the ASUN and SoCon, the two leagues agreed to split lacrosse sponsorship. The SoCon took over the ASUN men's lacrosse league, while women's lacrosse sponsorship remained with the ASUN.^[10]

More recently, on September 13, 2016, the ASUN and Big South announced a football partnership that allows any ASUN members with scholarship football programs to become Big South football members, provided they are located within the geographic footprint of the two conferences. At the time of announcement, the only ASUN member with a scholarship football program, Kennesaw State, was already a Big South football member. Should any ASUN member add scholarship football, or any non-scholarship football program of an ASUN school (at the time of announcement, Jacksonville and Stetson) upgrade to scholarship football, that team will automatically join Big South football.^[11]

↑ Fencing is a coeducational team sport; schools have separate men's and women's teams, but the NCAA awards only a single team championship.
↑ The ASUN and Southern Conference have a lacrosse alliance under which the two conferences split lacrosse sponsorship, with men's in the SoCon and women's in the ASUN. Although NJIT will presumably become part of this alliance, no announcement regarding the school's lacrosse affiliation was made when NJIT was announced as a new ASUN member.
