Vulcan Bowl

The Vulcan Bowl was a New Year's Day college football bowl game held beginning after the 1941 through the 1949 seasons at Legion Field. The game was created to determine the annual Negro College championship.

After West Virginia State University declined a bid to compete in the January 1, 1950, contest, the game was subsequently not played and as a result discontinued. [1]
