=== Football ===
The MEAC, along with the [[Southwestern Athletic Conference|Southwestern Athletic Conference (SWAC)]], are the only two Division I conferences whose members are mostly Historically Black Colleges and Universities (HBCUs). In 2015, the MEAC joined the SWAC and Ivy leagues in abstaining from sending their conference champions to the FCS Playoffs. While the conference champion faces off in the [[Celebration Bowl]] against the SWAC Champion, the remaining conference members remain eligible for at-large bids for the playoffs.

''This is a partial list of the last 10 champions. For the full history, see [[List of Mid-Eastern Athletic Conference football champions]].''

=== Men's basketball ===
{{see also|MEAC men's basketball tournament}}
On June 8, 1980, the MEAC earned the classification as a Division I conference by the [[National Collegiate Athletic Association]] (NCAA). Since 1981, the MEAC has received a qualifying bid to NCAA post season play in the sport of basketball. In three cases, MEAC schools seeded 15th (Coppin State in [[1997 NCAA Division I men's basketball tournament|1997]], Hampton in [[2001 NCAA Division I men's basketball tournament|2001]], Norfolk State in [[2012 NCAA Division I men's basketball tournament|2012]]) defeated second-seeded teams South Carolina, Iowa State and Missouri, respectively, in the NCAA tournament.

Coppin State again made history, as it qualified for the tournament as the first 20-loss team to play in the NCAA Tournament.
