EWC's Massie named SEAC Commissioner
December 28, 2005
Edward Waters head football coach Lamonte Massie has been
named commissioner of the South East Atlantic Conference (SEAC).
Massie succeeds Ron Shafer who recently resigned as Webber
International football coach after leading the Warriors to
a conference championship. Shafer had served as commissioner
since the conference started play in 2004.
"He worked diligently to get us in the position we are
now," Massie said. "We are poised and in the ready
position for great future opportunities from Shafer's great
work."
Massie has some experience running a football league having
served as commissioner of the semi-pro Carolinas Football League
in 1999.
"I anticipate great growth for our conference," Massie
said. "We are currently seeking the fifth and sixth members
of the conference so we can ensure that our conference champion
is in the [NAIA]
playoffs."
The SEAC currently has four members: Allen University, Edward
Waters College, Concordia College and Webber International
University.
A native of Syracuse, N.Y. and a 1991 graduate of Tuskegee
University, Massie, 38, has been head coach since football
returned to EWC 2001.
