THE NORTH CAROLINA HIGH SCHOOL ATHLETIC CONFERENCE
During
the month of February, in honor of Black History Month, the NCHSAA website will
feature information about African-Americans who have made major contributions
to the great tradition of high school sports in our state. We hope you find
these both entertaining and informative.
The North Carolina High
School Athletic Conference (NCHSAC) served for many years as the athletic
organization for historically black high schools during many of the days of
segregation.
The
NCHSAC conducted classified championships in several sports, certified
officials and administered its athletic program. Dr. Army Armstrong of Rocky
Mount, now a member of the North Carolina High School Athletic Association Hall
of Fame, served as its commissioner for many years.
Many
members of the old NCHSAC, which numbered well over 100 schools at one point,
joined the NCHSAA when the Conference merged with the Association. The NCHSAC
actually disbanded in 1969 after its start in the late 1920's.
We
have done quite a bit of research into the history of the organization and even
list results of its championship games, as available, in current NCHSAA
championship game programs as part of the historical record.
The
list of schools which competed for
championships in the NCHSAC would include some familiar names and maybe some
less so: Greensboro Dudley, Fayetteville E.E. Smith, Asheville Stephens-Lee,
Lexington Dunbar, Chapel Hill Lincoln, Rocky Mount Booker T. Washington, Durham
Merrick Moore, Williamston E.J. Hayes, Winston-Salem Atkins, Gastonia Highland
and Hickory Ridgeview, just to name a very few.
We
want to recognize the contribution of the NCHSAC and its member schools to the
great high school sports tradition in our state.
