The guides include information about sports teams including coaches, athletes, season schedules, and results of previous years. Oregon State University. Intercollegiate Athletics. Historical Note:

Oregon State University teams have competed in intercollegiate athletics since the 1890s. Oregon State fielded its first football team in 1893. Intercollegiate competition in women's basketball began in 1898, three years before men's basketball debuted in 1901. Men's track began in 1906, baseball in 1907, and wrestling in 1909. Competitive rowing began at Oregon Agricultural College in 1927 as an intramural (inter-class) sport. A Rowing Club for intercollegiate competition for men was established in the early 1930s after Edward A. Stevens joined the physical education faculty in 1931.

Women were competing in a variety of intercollegiate sports by the 1920s, more than 50 years before the Women's Intercollegiate Athletic Department was established in 1973. By the mid-1970s, women's teams were established in basketball, crew (rowing), cross country, golf, gymnastics, softball, swimming, tennis, track and field, and volleyball. Track and field for both men and women were eliminated at the end of the 1988 season; however, women's cross country and track resumed in the 2004-2005 academic year.

Oregon State University currently (as of 2010) competes in 7 men's intercollegiate sports and 10 women's. For men, these are baseball, basketball, football, golf, rowing, soccer, and wrestling. For women, these are basketball, cross country, golf, gymnastics, rowing, soccer, softball, swimming, track, and volleyball.

The Sports Media Guides, produced by Intercollegiate Athletics' Sports Information Department, consist of annual guides for Oregon State University's intercollegiate sports teams. The guides include information about coaches and players, schedule for the season, results of previous seasons, team and individual records, and other information pertaining to that particular sport including facilities. This collection includes guides for men's and women's athletics teams. Men's teams include baseball, basketball, crew and rowing, cross country, football, golf, soccer, tennis, track and field, and wrestling. Of special note are guides for the 1957 and 1965 Rose Bowl football games and for the 2006 and 2007 national champion baseball teams. Women's sports include basketball, crew and rowing, cross country, golf, gymnastics, soccer, softball, swimming, tennis, track and field, and volleyball. Many of the guides include photographs of athletes and coaches. Complete versions of the 2005-2007 baseball media guides are available online; covers of earlier guides are also available online. Images of media guides for other sports are available in the Best of the Archives digital collection.

The Intercollegiate Athletics Records (RG 007) document the overall administration of intercollegiate athletics at Oregon State and include administrative records, weekly news releases, and game programs. Additional information about individual sports and notable athletes are available in the Memorabilia Collection. The Intercollegiate Athletics Moving Images (FV P 031) and Photographs (P 031) provide visual documentation of sports teams and events at Oregon State. Other moving images of athletics teams and events are part of the Alumni Association (FV P 017) and the News and Communication Services (FV P 057) Motion Picture Films and Videotapes. The Archives' holdings include many collections with photographs, memorabilia, and other materials documenting athletics. Records of sports clubs which compete against other colleges and universities, but are not overseen by the Department of Intercollegiate Athletics, are part of the Recreational Sports Department Records (RG 240).

Additions to the collection are expected.
