Atlantic 10 Conference

The Atlantic 10 Conference (A-10) is a collegiate athletic conference which operates mostly on the United States' eastern seaboard but also in the Midwest. Member schools are located in Massachusetts, New York, Pennsylvania, Virginia, North Carolina, Ohio, and Missouri as well as in the District of Columbia. Although some of its members are state-funded, half of its membership is made up of private, Catholic institutions. Despite the name, there are 14 full-time members, and two affiliate members that participate in women's field hockey only.
