Emory & Henry becomes full NCAA Division II member

Emory & Henry College has become a full NCAA Division II member for the upcoming academic year. A news release from the college says the NCAA membership committee deliberated after Emory & Henry completed the necessary annual reporting. Emory & Henry leadership were informed last Thursday that the NCAA had granted the full membership to the school. Now that the college is Division II, the Wasps can qualify for the NCAA Tournament if they win the South Atlantic Conference or perform well enough in the season. Emory & Henry joined the South Atlantic Conference in the 2022-23 school year with provisional status in hopes of becoming a full Division II member by 2024. In April, Emory & Henry announced the multi-million dollar Food City Sports Complex was expected to open by August this year.
