CALIFORNIA PACIFIC CONFERENCE
2024-25 Men’s and Women’s Basketball Champions of Character

2024-25 Men’s and Women’s Basketball Champions of Character

The California Pacific Conference is a perennial NAIA Conference of Character, a distinction made possible by the member institutions' commitment to the Association's five core values of a Champion of Character: Respect, Responsibility, Integrity, Sportsmanship, and Servant-Leadership.

At the conclusion of each sport season, the Cal Pac recognizes an individual from each institution who best represents those core values. The men's and women's basketball coaches select and honor their players.

"This is a big honor, chosen by the head coaches," said conference commissioner Dr. Don Ott. "These student-athletes stood out among their teammates for living out the values of the NAIA and the Cal Pac. We congratulate each one."
