History

Division II and Division III eras

The university has achieved multiple national championships as a Division III and Division II school. The school has also been a National Runner-up 8 times including Softball in 1989 (D-II), Women's Volleyball in 1979 and 1989 (D-II), Baseball in 1988 (D-II), Women's Track and Field in 1981 (AIAW D-II), Men's Cross Country in 1979 (D-II), Football in 1964 (CDN), and Men's Basketball (1962 CDN). Prior to AIAW softball division classifications, the softball team played in two Women's College World Series in 1976 and 1977. [8]

Move to Division I and FCS referendum

In November 1986, then-university president Donald Gerth, influenced by an athletic advisory board study, announced a five-year plan to elevate the program to the Division I level. [9] The announcement, which included a reinstatement of the Hornet tennis team, [10] upheld a student election which doubled student-activity fees from $13 to $26 per semester in order to finance the move, providing a more than $175,000 boost into the athletic budget per semester.

Then in 1995, following a reported $1.1 million deficit stemming from elevating the program up to the Division I-AA level (today known as FCS), Sacramento State students voted to raise their fees from $5 to $45 per semester to keep Hornet football, with 62 percent of voters supporting the increase. [11]

Discussion of move to FBS level

During 2010–2014 NCAA conference realignment, there was speculation that the Hornets' Athletic department would like to move the football team to the Football Bowl Subdivision (FBS) [12] due to the population base of Sacramento (ranked 20th-largest in college sports), [13] the (enrollment) size of the university and the attractiveness of recruiting in the Sac-Joaquin Section.

During realignment, the WAC had shown interest in adding Sacramento State as a member. [14] To make the move to the FBS, however, the school needed to add an additional sport for women in order to meet the criteria of Title IX, [15] and also needed to fund a new sports complex for men's and women's basketball and volleyball because their arena was inadequate for FBS-level sports and severely outdated (with a crowd capacity of 1,012 people). [16] Sacramento State was unable to fund a massive facility upgrade for their athletic facilities (including basketball/volleyball, football, baseball and softball among others) in order to move to the FBS due to economic reasons and resistance from students and faculty members because of increasing tuition and overall cost. [17] To become an FBS member, the football program would have been required to have an attendance average of 15,000 each season and the athletic department needed to increase overall funds for their athletic programs. On June 6, 2011, Big Sky Commissioner Doug Fullerton announced that "We're in a better place than the WAC is," [18] marking an end of fan and community attempts to move to FBS-level sports during that period.

The programs' first victory came in the second season, 1955, where the Hornets defeated Southern Oregon by a point, which was also their only win of the season(they were winless in their first season of football). Sacramento State Football first affiliated with the Northern California Athletic Conference (NCAC) from 1962 until 1972, where they were added to the Western Football Conference (WFC) from 1973 to 1985, then becoming part of the D-1AA American West Conference (AWC). [25] In 1996, Sac State was added to the Big Sky Conference along with Portland State, becoming the first California school in the Big Sky. Hornet Stadium has been home to the football team since 1969.

[26] The Beavers were a 23-point favorite coming into the game.

On September 8, 2012, the Hornets repeated the feat of defeating a Pac-12, upsetting the Colorado Buffaloes by a score 30–28 in Boulder in front of a crowd of 46,843. [27] The Buffaloes were heavily favored in the match up. Walk-on Edgar Castaneda was awarded a full scholarship following his game-winning field goal.

On September 24, 2022, the Hornets defeated Colorado State Rams football 41-10 at Canvas Stadium, making this the largest win margin by Sacramento State over an FBS team. The 2022 team went on to go undefeated in the regular season for the first time in school, finishing 11-0.

On September 16, 2023, the Hornets defeated Stanford football team 30-23 at Stanford Stadium, making this year the second year in a row that Sacramento State beat an FBS team.

This game has consistently drawn large crowds, with the largest on record being the 2022 Causeway Classic game, with 23,073, a Sacramento State Hornets Football record.

The Sacramento State Marching Band performs at home football games each fall, as well as at numerous other university functions and also periodically at high school band festivals. The Hornet Revue Pep Band is a subgroup of the marching band, and performs at all home basketball (men's and women's) and volleyball games. Both bands are under the direction of Santiago Sabado.

Fight song

"Fight, Hornet, Fight!" is the official fight song of California State University, Sacramento. It is most widely known for being played by the Sacramento State Marching Band after scores at Sacramento State football games, and during the band's pre-game and halftime shows. It is played after a touchdown, field goal, extra point, or a safety.

"Fight, Hornet, Fight!" is also played as the band forms a tunnel for the football team as they enter Hornet Stadium before the beginning of each home game. After every Hornet win, the football team comes over to the sideline where the band's section is and sings along while the song is being played.

"Fight, Hornet, Fight!" was composed by Don McDonald in 1949. McDonald graduated from Sacramento State in 1952. The current arrangement of the song was written by former Band Director Jeffrey Edom in 1997.
