Central State football is one of the nation’s historically significant HBCU programs, competing today as an NCAA Division II member of the Southern Intercollegiate Athletic Conference (SIAC). The Marauders’ history includes two NAIA Football National Championship (Division I) titles (1990 and 1992), along with a 1983 NCAA Division II national runner-up finish. Legendary head coach Billy Joe led Central State to its NAIA national championship seasons, and the program’s legacy includes standout talent like Hugh Douglas, who went on to become an NFL Pro Bowl defensive end with the New York Jets and Philadelphia Eagles.
Marauders home games are played at McPherson Stadium in Wilberforce, Ohio. With an approximate capacity of 8,000, the stadium offers an up-close college football experience where the crowd stays connected to the action.
