MEAC Awarded Automatic
NCAA Basketball Berth
The National Collegiate
Athletic Association
(NCAA) has announced
thai the Mid-Eastern
Athletic Conference was
granted an automatic
berth to participate in t he
NCAA annual Division I
Basketball Tournament.
The MEAC will send its
tournament champion.
Thus, the MEAC con
tinues to progress under
the exuberant guidance of
Commissioner Ken Free,
who assumed the position
in April, 1978.
Free was also in
strumental in l he drive for
all MEAC member institu
tions to be classified Divi
sion I, which became a
reality last June when
Bethune-Cookman was
voted in. In October,
1979, Florida A&M 'and
Beihune-Cookman joined
original members
Delaware Slate, Howard,
N.C. A&T and S.C. State
lo form the preseni
membership.
Morgan Slate, N.C.
Central, and Maryland
Eastern Shore opted to re
main Division , and
bowed out of the conference.
When the MEAC
constructed in 1970,
of its main purposes
Division I
fering the same oppor
tunities to all affiliates
who saiisfy the criteria set
forth. His only regret was
for the institutions that
withdrew, because they
too had hopes of reaching
such a plateau.
When asked what the
berth means to the
members, Free says,
"First of all, it will give
our teams added incentive
to win the MEAC Tourna
ment. It is another means
of exposing and publiciz
ing our historically black
institutions, plus the
automatic berth can be us
ed as a tremendous
recruiting tool."
However, a MEAC
team will not be the first
historically black college
lo participate in the
NCAA Tournament,
because Alcorn Slate of
the Southwestern Athletic
Conference was selected
last season.
