Michigan MAC Trophy

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

The Michigan MAC Trophy is given to the Michigan Mid-American Conference university, Central Michigan University (CMU), Eastern Michigan University (EMU) and Western Michigan University (WMU), which defeats the other two schools in the same sport in the same season. The Michigan MAC Trophy will remain with the winning school until one of the other rivals claims the title.

The Michigan MAC Trophy was created in 2005 by the Michigan Sports Hall of Fame. There are two trophies, one given to the winner of the football series and the other to the winner of the men's basketball series. CMU, EMU and WMU have been competing together in the MAC since 1974 (although WMU joined the MAC in 1948).

Eastern Michigan won the 2007 football trophy. The football trophy has been won by all three schools in its first three years of existence. WMU clinched the 2008 basketball trophy for the third consecutive time.

Western Michigan University claimed the inaugural Michigan MAC Trophy for each sport.

The 2006 football trophy was given to Central Michigan after sweeping their games vs EMU and WMU. Western Michigan won their second straight basketball trophy in 2007, finishing 3-1 vs CMU and EMU.

For 2008, the Women's Basketball Michigan MAC trophy remains at Eastern Michigan for another year with a 3-1 Record against Michigan MAC Teams.[1]
