The Mountain States Athletic Conference, formally known as the Rocky Mountain Faculty Athletic Conference, was formed in 1938 by seven charter institutions, including Brigham Young University. It was active until 1962, during which period BYU remained a member. It was often informally referred to as the Skyline Conference. E.L. Romney was appointed the commissioner of the conference in 1949, and was succeeded by Paul Brechler in 1960.
