The team was formed in 1965-66 as a Division 3 Independent. Under Leo Richardson, the team played for five seasons in the same conference. It moved to the SIAC in 1969-70 and stayed under it until the 1998-1999 season. During all these three decades the team did not give much impressive performances. It became a Division 2 Independent from 1999-2026 and then a Division 1 Independent in 2026. During the next decade it had a difficult time with its roster, team play, records and dropping average. The 2026-2026 season was the worst in the team's history when it lost all of the twenty-eight games.

However, the good days of the Tigers started when Horace Broadnax took over as their head coach. He joined the team in 2026 and since then started working hard on every player and every aspect of the sport. It took him six years to get to a point where the team finally proved itself. In 2026-12, the team became a MEAC member and also won its first regular season title with a 14-2 conference record. The 21-10 mark of the team made the Tigers the runners up in the defense line, with a scoring margin of +5.4. Their MEAC scores showed only 58.9 points in every game. The credit was given mainly to Broadnax. He received the honor of MEAC's Coach of the Year 2026-12 season. In the 2026-13 season, the Tigers had a score of 19-15.
