Area roundup: Mountain East football schedules released
Advertiser

The Mountain East Conference released its league football schedule Friday for the 2013 and 2014 seasons.

The league's charter members include Concord, Fairmont State, Glenville State, Notre Dame College (Ohio), Shepherd, Charleston, University of Virginia-Wise, Urbana (Ohio), West Liberty, West Virginia State and West Virginia Wesleyan, with all fielding football programs. The conference's twelfth member, Wheeling Jesuit, does not offer a football program.

West Virginia State will open its 2013 conference schedule traveling to Concord on Sept. 14 and UC will open Sept. 21 at UVA-Wise.

To accommodate 2013 Week 1 non-conference obligations, the Mountain East will play a nine-game schedule in its inaugural year and then begin round-robin play as part of a 10-game league slate in 2014. (For UC's and State's conference schedules, see Page 2B.)
