Team History
The Citadel Bulldogs make it a point to let people know they did field a team in 1900-01, even though the school was defeated by Charleston 25-7. There was no team again until the 1912-13 season. The Citadel became a pretty good squad in short order, posting back-to-back undefeated seasons in 1918-19 and 1919-20 and proclaiming the title of “1925 State Champions” in the school’s record book after going 6-1 against Furman, South Carolina, Presbyterian and Clemson.
The Bulldogs defeated Mercer 42-41 to win the 1927 Southern Intercollegiate Athletic Association postseason tournament, which is still the only time The Citadel has won a conference title. The Bulldogs did receive an invitation to compete in the 2009 CIT Tournament after going 20-13 but lost in the first round.
The Bulldogs have had a few good seasons in recent years but haven’t been able to sustain anything, with the last graduating class to leave with a winning record occurring in 1984-85. The Citadel is one of four teams to have been playing at the time of the first NCAA Tournament to have never made the “Big Dance,” along with Army, St. Francis and William & Mary.
