The Western Washington Vikings program represented Western Washington University in college football at the NCAA Division II level. The Vikings were members of the Great Northwest Athletic Conference until the program was eliminated in January 2009 due to budget cuts. Western Washington first fielded a football team in 1903; the team played 797 total games in 98 seasons with a final record of 383 wins, 380 losses, and 34 ties. The Vikings had five national Division II playoff appearances and finished as runners-up in the 1996 NAIA Division II season.[2]
