The enter-exit cycle continued in 1961 when Texas College withdrew, followed by the admittance of Alcorn A&M (now Alcorn State University) in 1962. Wiley left in 1968, the same year Mississippi Valley State College entered. Arkansas AM&N exited in 1970 and Alabama State Univer- sity entered in 1982.

Arkansas–Pine Bluff (formerly Arkansas AM&N) rejoined the SWAC on July 1, 1997, regaining full-member status one year later. Alabama A&M University be- came the conference’s tenth member when it became a full member in Septem- ber, 1999 after a one year period as an affiliate SWAC member. Most of the former SWAC members that have left the confer- ence are currently a part of the Red River Athletic Conference of the NAIA. Howard University became a charter member in women’s soccer prior to the 2014 season.

Today, the SWAC, considered the premier HBCU conference, ranks among the elite in the nation in terms of alumni playing with professional sports teams, particularly in the sport of football.

On the gridiron, the conference as been the biggest draw on the Football Champi- onship Subdivision level of the NCAA, leading the nation in average home attend- ance for much of the FCS’s existence. In 1994, the SWAC fell just 40,000 fans short of becoming the first non-Football Bowl Subdivision conference to attract one mil- lion fans to its home games.

Current championship competition offered by the SWAC includes competition for men in baseball, basketball, cross country, foot- ball, golf, indoor track, outdoor track & field and tennis. Women’s competition is offered in the sports of basketball, bowling, cross country, golf, indoor track, outdoor track & field, soccer, softball, tennis and volleyball.
