Mid-Atlantic Athletic Conference

The Mid-Atlantic Athletic Conference (MAC) is an American high school athletic league composed of private schools in the Washington, D.C. area. The conference was founded in 1994.[1] Solely male teams participate in the conference. As every member school is co-ed, the girls compete in the Independent School League, or ISL. The MAC is often considered less competitive than the IAC or the WCAC, but more competitive than the PVAC, the three other Washington-area private high school conferences. One central reason for this discrepancy is the higher level of academic focus present in schools in the MAC and also the great difference in size between area schools. For example, Saint James has a total student body population of 235, a number which comprises both boys and girls. Gonzaga College High School, meanwhile, an all-boys school in the WCAC, has an enrollment of roughly 1,075.
