North Dakota College Athletic Conference

The North Dakota College Athletic Conference (NDCAC) was a college athletic conference that operated from 1931 to 2000 with member schools located in the states of Minnesota and North Dakota. The conference formed in November 1931, as the North Dakota Intercollegiate Athletic Conference (NDIAC), after the dissolution of the Interstate Athletic Conference. Later known as North Dakota Intercollegiate Conference (NDIC), the conference ceased operations following the 1999–00 academic school year when it merged with the South Dakota Intercollegiate Conference (SDIC) to form the Dakota Athletic Conference (DAC).
