Washington Catholic Athletic Conference

The Washington Catholic Athletic Conference (WCAC) is a major high school athletic league for boys, girls, and co-ed Catholic high schools of the Archdiocese of Washington & Diocese of Arlington located in the Washington Metropolitan Area. The WCAC is widely regarded as the nation's best boys and girls basketball and football conference, with several teams in the conference ranked nationally in any given year.

History

The Washington Catholic Athletic Conference was formed from the merger of two established Washington-area Catholic school athletic leagues. In November 1992, the all-boys Metro Conference and the Catholic Girls Athletic Association (CGAA) voted to merge and create a coeducational league beginning with the 1993–94 school year. Twelve schools were involved in the merger, and the new league was initially expected to be called the Mid-Atlantic Catholic Athletic Association.^[1]

By the fall of 1993, the league was operating as the Washington Catholic Athletic Conference. Contemporary coverage of a 1993 football game between DeMatha and St. John's described the WCAC as having a new name and alignment and noted that the schools' previous conference meetings had been played as members of the Metro Conference.^[2]

Members

The conference includes Basketball, Football, Lacrosse, Track and Field, Wrestling, Soccer, Volleyball and Baseball programs.^{[citation needed]}It has produced numerous professional athletes in the NFL, NBA, MLS, MLB and PLL.

Football

Football championship records associated with the Washington Catholic Athletic Conference extend through its predecessor conferences. The Metro Conference was organized in 1969 and became the primary boys' athletic conference for many of the Catholic schools that later formed the WCAC.^[3] In 1993, the Metro Conference was reorganized into the Washington Catholic Athletic Conference. DeMatha won the first football championship under the WCAC name that season after having won the final two Metro Conference championships in 1991 and 1992.^[4]

Beginning with the 2018 season, WCAC football was divided into the Capital and Metro divisions, with each division conducting its own postseason and awarding a championship. St. Mary's Ryken won the inaugural Metro Division championship, while Gonzaga won the inaugural Capital Division championship.^[5]
