The CVAC has roots in the Old North State Conference formed in 1938. The name changed<br />
to the Carolinas Conference with the first inclusion of South Carolina members, and in 1994<br />
became the CVAC as Virginia membership was included and championship play was shifted to<br />
NCAA Division II.<br />
