THE PENNSYLVANIA CONFERENCE
The Pennsylvania State Colleges Athletic Conference, organized In 1951,
recently changed its name to the Pennsylvania Conference. Its membership
originally consisted of the 14 state colleges: Bloomsburg, California, Cheyney,
Clarion, East Stroudsburg, Edinboro, Indiana, Kutztown, Lock Haven,
Mansfield, Millersville, Shippensburg, Slippery Rock, and West Chester. In
1966 Indiana no longer was eligible for conference laurels as it acquired
university status. The conference is divided into a Western Division and an
Eastern Division and conference champions of both leagues face each other
at the end of the season to determine the PC championship. All 13 state
colleges that compete in the PC belong to the E.C.A.C., while many are also
NCAA and NAIA members.
