The Pacific Collegiate Hockey Association (PCHA) was a collegiate hockey conference within Division 2 of the ACHA. The PCHA was in operation for more than 40 years and administered the PCHA Playoffs at the conclusion of each regular season. The winner of the PCHA Playoffs received the coveted Adams Cup, named after Cary Adams who started the conference.

History

The PCHA, originally named the Southern California Collegiate Hockey Association, began in 1972. The three charter schools were Cal State Northridge, UCLA and Caltech.

In 2008 San Diego State became the first PCHA team to advance to the ACHA Division 3 National Championship Game but lost to California University (PA). In 2011 College of the Canyons became the first PCHA team to win the national championship by defeating Hope College 5–3.

The PCHA competed in Division 2 of the ACHA since the 2016-17 season until the conference's closure following the 2019-20 season.
