Ohio Athletic Conference

Founded in 1902, the Ohio Athletic Conference is the third oldest organization of its kind in the United States. Largely through the initiative of Professor C.E. St. John of Oberlin College, invitations proposing an informal meeting for the purpose of considering the organization of an athletic conference were issued early in 1902 to six Ohio colleges. The stated purpose of this conference was to formalize, stabilize, and coordinate athletic relations among the schools.
