Conference membership
Eastern Illinois is currently a full member of the Ohio Valley Conference (OVC) which does not sponsor men's soccer, so EIU is an associate member of the Summit League for men’s soccer, as well as for men's and women's swimming & diving.
In 1982, EIU was one of the eight charter members of the Association of Mid-Continent Universities (AMCU) which changed its name to the Mid-Continent Conference (Mid-Con) in 1989 and became the Summit League in 2007. The Panthers played soccer in the AMCU/Mid-Con until leaving for membership in the OVC in 1996. Upon joining the OVC, EIU also became an Affiliate member of the Missouri Valley Conference (MVC) for men's soccer. The Panthers swimming & diving teams had returned to the Mid-Con in 1996; in 2011, EIU cut its membership to only two conferences as the men's soccer returned to what is now the Summit League.
