The San Jose State Spartans are the athletic teams that represent San José State University. SJSU sports teams compete in the Mountain West Conference (MWC) at the NCAA Division I level. (Football Bowl Subdivision formally known as Division 1-A for football.) The university has participated in athletics since it first fielded a baseball team in 1890.

San José State University sports teams have won NCAA national titles in track and field, cross country, golf, boxing, fencing and tennis.[2] As of July 2014, SJSU has won 10 NCAA national Division 1 team championships[3] and produced 50 NCAA national Division 1 individual champions.[2] SJSU also has achieved an international reputation for its judo program, winning 47 National Collegiate Judo Association (NCJA) championships in 53 years (as of 2014).[4][5]

SJSU alumni have won 19 Olympic medals (including seven gold medals) dating back to the first gold medal won by Willie Steele in track and field in the 1948 Olympics. Alumni also have won medals in swimming, judo and boxing.

The track team coached by "Bud" Winter earned San Jose the nickname "Speed City," and produced Olympic medalists and social activists Lee Evans, John Carlos and Tommie Smith. Smith and Carlos are perhaps best remembered for giving the raised fist salute from the medalist's podium during the 1968 Summer Olympic Games in Mexico City.

Current varsity teams

San José State University sponsors teams in seven men's and thirteen women's NCAA sanctioned sports:[6]

  • # = Gymnastics and the men's and women's water polo teams compete in the Mountain Pacific Sports Federation.
  • * = Beach volleyball is a fully sanctioned NCAA sport which had its first national championship in the spring of 2016.[7] San Jose State is currently an independent.

Nickname and mascot history

Due to the school's original designation as a teachers' college, SJSU's mascot changed many times before the school finally adopted the Spartans as the official mascot and nickname in 1942. Mascots and nicknames prior to 1942 included the Daniels, the Teachers, the Pedagogues, the Normals, and the Normalites. The school's current mascot is Sammy the Spartan or Sammy Spartan for short.

After 1887, the official name of the San Jose campus was the State Normal School at San Jose. The school's athletic teams initially played under the "Normal" identity, but they gradually shifted to the State Normal School identity, as evidenced by images of the SNS football and basketball squads from this era. Despite the SNS identity, the school continued to be referred to as the California State Normal School, San José in official publications. A recent historical exhibit in the Martin Luther King Library on the San José State campus featured a number of pieces of State Normal School memorabilia, including a SNS pennant.

Rivals

San Jose State shares rivalries with fellow Mountain West members: Fresno State, San Diego State and Hawaii, as well as Stanford due to its close proximity, in all sports. With its shared history, CSU affiliate Fresno State University is SJSU's biggest rival, while fellow South Bay resident Santa Clara University athletic programs challenge for local turf, especially in SJSU vs. SCU soccer and basketball games.

Facilities

San Jose State vs. Utah at Spartan Stadium - 2009

The Event Center, Aquatic Center, and the Spartan Complex are the principal sports facilities on the main campus for athletes. Additional athletics facilities, including Spartan Stadium and Blethen Field (baseball), along with the athletics department administrative offices and multiple training and practice facilities, are located on SJSU's 62-acre (25.1 ha) south campus approximately 1.5 mi (2.4 km) south of the main campus.

In April 2014, a new $76 million master plan to renovate the entire South Campus was unveiled. The plan calls for construction of a 9-hole golf facility, new baseball and softball stadiums, new track and field facilities, new soccer and tennis facilities, and three beach volleyball courts. The project is currently in the planning stages.[9]

In the late 1940s and early 1950s, Uchida and University of California, Berkeley coach Henry Stone established rules to allow their students to compete with each other, including a weight class system. Uchida and Stone convinced the Amateur Athletic Union to sanction judo as a sport, and San José State hosted the first AAU national championship in 1953.

In 1962, the Spartans won the first National Collegiate Judo Championship. They would continue to dominate the event to the present day, winning their 47th national championship in 2014.[4][5]

Despite student interest and the availability of local talent, SJSU has not sponsored a Division 1 wrestling program since the 1988 season.[34] Eddie Baza is one of three two-time All-America wrestlers in San Jose State University history and was inducted into the Spartan Sports Hall of Fame in 2005.[35]
