MIT beat Salve
#2
At Endicott
#3
After graduation, It appears Endicott can't run the ball.  The individual stats from today are terrible. But, the D is still strong and a fg from 50 is positive.

yes, there is a two year wait for the new conference

NEFC announces league restructuring for 2013 season

Starting in 2013, Endicott will be one of eight teams competing in the newly restructured NEFC.Rob Palardy, Sports Information Director

FITCHBURG, Mass. - New England Football Conference (NEFC) Commissioner Sue Lauder has announced a restructuring of the Conference that will take place prior to the 2013 season. The NEFC, founded in 1965 by Bridgewater State College, Curry College, and Maine Maritime Academy, will function as an eight team league and will retain the NEFC's automatic bid to the NCAA Division III Championship Tournament.  The realigned NEFC will consist of Curry College, Endicott College, Maine Maritime Academy, MIT, Nichols College, Salve Regina University, the U.S. Coast Guard Academy, and Western New England University.

Institutions that are currently members of the multi-sport Massachusetts State Collegiate Athletic Conference (Bridgewater State University, Fitchburg State University, Framingham State University, Massachusetts Maritime Academy, Westfield State University, and Worcester State University) will compete in a newly formed MASCAC football league.  Plymouth State University and UMass Dartmouth, two schools that have a playing relationship with the MASCAC through an affiliation agreement between the MASCAC and the Little East Conference, will also join the new league.

"It's been an honor to have been a member of the NEFC and to work with the quality student athletes, coaches and administrators at all of the NEFC institutions," said Lauder who is also the Director of Athletics at Fitchburg.  "I wish the conference continued success and look forward to maintaining relationships with NEFC members."

The NEFC, with 16 members divided into two divisions, is the largest Division III football conference in the nation.  The Conference's championship game between the winners of the two divisions is also unique among Division III football.

Dating back to 2003, the first season of varsity competition for Endicott, eight of the nine conference champions have been from one of the remaining institutions in the newly restructured NEFC.  Historically, Endicott holds a 31-16 record against Curry, Maine Maritime, MIT, Nichols, Salve Regina and Western New England and a 10-1 mark over the past two seasons.  The Gulls have never faced Coast Guard in their nine-year history.

The Blue and Green earned their first ever NEFC title in 2010 which led to an appearance in the NCAA Division III Tournament.  Behind strong leadership and immense skill from their senior class, the Gulls followed up their record-breaking 2010 campaign with an even more impressive season in 2011.  All-time records across offense, defense and special teams resulted in a program-best 11 wins and an Eastern College Athletic Conference (ECAC) North Atlantic Bowl victory over Mount Ida, 31-22.

"That right there should explain to you why Endicott was left out in the cold on Selection Sunday.  As many of us have stated in the past...you want the blue print for future success and future respect...take a look at Salve's scheduling blueprint."

As it was discussed here, knowing how Endicott was left out because of it's limited SOS would it not be possible for the NEFC and its two divisions to spilt and request a second pool A bid.  They have the teams and numbers required. This option avoids scheduling out of conference games and keeps travel costs to a minimum for the state schools.

Also, Salve is a head coaching starting ponit.  When a head coach is succesfull at Salve he is and will always be sought after by other schools.  When he is able to win with the restictions put on him by the school, just think what he is able to do with support.

Salve "Class of the NEFC"  This is a funny line.  Thank you for the laugh with coffee this morning.

Salve has had three coachs in the last 6 years.  Salve has no home field or pratice field and they play at the local middle school.  Why is this good for recurting?  Because the current coach scheduled out of conference games?
