The Mountain Rim Gymnastics Conference (MRGC) was an NCAA Division I women's gymnastics conference for schools that did not have women's gymnastics as a sponsored sport in their primary conferences. Established in 2013 and sponsoring its first competitions in 2014, the conference was recognized by the NCAA in the summer of 2014 and held its first "official" championships in March 2015 with qualifying athletes advancing to the Regionals of the NCAA Women's Gymnastics Championships. The conference was dissolved in 2023 after three of its four members departed; Utah State and Boise State began competing in their primary conference of the Mountain West after it added women's gymnastics as a sponsored sport, and BYU moved to the Big 12 along with the rest of the school's athletic programs.
