The Pac-12 Championship was won by Arizona on a walk-off single in the conference's final event, and the announcer gave a heartfelt goodbye.

An era in college sports has come to an end after more than a century.

The Pacific-12 Conference was established in 1915 as the Pacific Coast Conference and has since undergone several name changes, including the Athletic Association of Western Universities, Pac-8, Pac-10, and its current name.

The conference will no longer exist after 10 of its 12 schools leave for other leagues.

The conference will be a two-team conference starting in the 2024-25 academic year, with only Oregon State and Washington State remaining.

The conference that we have grown accustomed to had its final contest on Saturday night, ending in wild fashion.

The baseball championship between USC and Arizona was won by the Wildcats on a walk-off single in the ninth.

Roxy Bernstein, the conference network announcer, stated on the call, "The Pac-12 concludes with one final game played in the dark."

After the game, Bernstein took time to "tie up" the conference and share what the conference has meant to not just him, but sports fans in general on the Pac-12 network's final live broadcast.

"I was one of the first hires at Pac-12 Networks, which launched 12 years ago. Tonight, I have the honor and responsibility to say goodbye," he said.

The Pac-12 Conference holds a special place in my heart and soul. It means more to me than words can convey. No other conference can compare to its storied history, which is what makes it the Conference of Champions.

"The breakup of the Pac-12 was announced in August, and while we've had time to process the news, the impact will still be felt for a long time."

Wes Clements, his color analyst, stated that playing in the Pac-12 means you have played in the best conference in NCAA history.

The Big 12 will welcome Arizona, Arizona State, Colorado, and Utah, while the Big 10 will include UCLA, USC, Oregon, and Washington. Additionally, Cal and Stanford will join the ACC.
