Idaho and Boise State dropped varsity baseball after the 1980 season, as did Seattle U., and the five-team Nor-Pac played a seventh and final season  Puget Sound dropped its program and the remaining four (GU, EWU, PSU, UP) joined the Northern division of the Pac-10 (as affiliate members, baseball only) for 1982; Oregon also discontinued baseball after  which had left just three teams (Washington, Washington State, and Oregon State). In the Pac-10, the champion of the seven-team Northern division met the runner-up of the stronger six-team Southern division in a best-of-three series for the conference's second berth in the NCAA tournament. Eastern Washington dropped baseball in 1990, and Portland State eight years later; after 1995, Gonzaga and Portland moved their baseball to the West Coast Conference (WCC), where their other sports were. Baseball returned at Oregon in 2009, Seattle U. in 2010, and briefly at Boise State for a pandemic-shortened 2020 season before being eliminated a second time due to a budget reduction.. Champions
