The Mid-Eastern Athletic Conference (MEAC) enters its 53rd year of intercollegiate competition with the 2023-24 academic school year. Located in Norfolk, Va., the MEAC is made up of eight outstanding historically black institutions across the Atlantic coastline: Coppin State University, Delaware State University, Howard University, University of Maryland Eastern Shore, Morgan State University, Norfolk State University, North Carolina Central University and South Carolina State University.

In football, the MEAC was instrumental in constructing the Celebration Bowl, the Freedom Bowl All-Star Classic, the Heritage Bowl and the Gold Bowl. Prior to Division I competition, the MEAC competed in the Gold Bowl, held in Richmond, Va., which matched the MEAC champion against the champion of the Central Intercollegiate Athletic Association (CIAA). South Carolina State represented the MEAC in 1976 and 1979, winning both outings over Winston-Salem State and Norfolk State, respectively. In addition to the 1976 and 1979 crowns, South Carolina State won MEAC football titles in 1974-78, 1980-83, 1994, 2004, 2008, 2009 and 2021. The Bulldogs were also named co-champions along with Bethune-Cookman and Florida A&M in 2010, before sharing the 2013 title with Bethune-Cookman, the 2014 title with four other teams and the 2019 title with North Carolina A&T State. During the 1981 and 1982 seasons, South Carolina State reached the second round of the NCAA Div. I-AA championships.

The MEAC also has a strong presence in the National Football League (NFL), both throughout the league’s history and today. For the start of the 2022 season, there were 12 former MEAC players on active NFL rosters – highlighted by South Carolina State’s Darius Leonard. 

Leonard, a two-time MEAC Defensive Player of the Year, was taken in the second round of the 2018 NFL Draft by the Indianapolis Colts; that same season, he was named the NFL’s Defensive Rookie of the Year after leading the league in total tackles. He was also named First Team All-Pro that season, and in 2019, Leonard was named to the Pro Bowl.
