The Horizon League is a nine school, NCAA Division I college athletic conference, whose members are located in five midwestern states of the U.S. Although the league does not sponsor football, two members have Division I-AA teams: Youngstown State in the Gateway Football Conference, and Butler in the Pioneer League. Men's volleyball is also not sponsored, although Loyola competes in the Midwestern Intercollegiate Volleyball Association.
The Horizon League has been one of the top performing NCAA Division I conferences in men's college basketball. In just the last 12 years it has sent 17 teams to the NCAA Tournament, producing eight wins, including two "Sweet 16" appearances. The Horizon League has had a team win at least one game in three of the last four, and six of the last nine NCAA Tournaments, as well as having five wins in the last four years. These recent accomplishments by the Horizon League's teams are in addition to several other Sweet 16, Elite Eight, and Final Four appearances by current league members, including a National Championship (Loyola in 1963). The Horizon League is also one of only two non-BCS conferences with Sweet 16 finalists in at least two of the last four NCAA Tournaments (the other being Conference USA). The Horizon League has been a multiple-bid NCAA conference seven times, including a best of three NCAA Tournament berths in 1998. The Horizon League has gained men's basketball national notoriety in other ways as well, as it has hosted the men's Final Four in 1991, 1997, 2000 and 2006, and will host in 2009 and 2010. It also hosted the women's Final Four in 2005 and will host again in 2007. Horizon League commissioner Jonathan B. LeCrone, who is in his 14th year as league commissioner, is also in the middle of a five-year term on the NCAA Division I Men's Basketball Committee.
