The MAC consisted of over 30 teams at that time, making it impossible to organize full league schedules in sports like football, basketball, and baseball. In 1958, the larger schools created their own mini-conference, consisting of 11 members (7 for football). In 1974, the larger schools in the MAC officially formed the East Coast Conference. During the 1974-75 through 1981-82 seasons, the ECC enjoyed a consistent membership of 12 teams.

Over the next two years, La Salle and American also said goodbye, cutting the roster to eight. In 1987, A duo of East Carolina pitched a make-over for the ECC, ...
