The Texas A&M–Corpus Christi Islanders are the athletic teams that represent Texas A&M University–Corpus Christi, located in Corpus Christi, Texas, in intercollegiate athletics as a member of the Division I level of the National Collegiate Athletic Association (NCAA), primarily competing in the Southland Conference since the 2006–07 academic year. [3] Prior to that, the Islanders had competed as an NCAA Division III Independent from 1999–2000 to 2001–02; as well as an NCAA D-I Independent from 2002–03 to 2005–06.
TAMUCC's team nickname, the Islanders, was taken from the institution being located on an island. Their mascot is "Izzy the Islander", a blue costumed man that shows resemblances of a wave. The former “Izzy” mascot was a costumed man with a tiki mask headdress, grass skirt, and spear but has since been retired. [4] Prior to that, the official mascot was "Tarpie" the Tarpon.
TAMUCC competes in 16 intercollegiate varsity sports: Men's sports include baseball, basketball, cross country, tennis and track & field (indoor and outdoor); women's sports include basketball, beach volleyball, cross country, golf, soccer, softball, tennis, track and field (indoor and outdoor) and volleyball.
