Teams will be selected by the ECAC Football Championships Committee on or about 11/15/09 (following selection of the NCAA Playoffs field).  Teams historically have been selected by win-loss record except when ties exist.  The #1 team hosts the #6 team, the #2 team hosts the #5 team and the #3 team hosts the #4 team, unless the higher-seeded team does not file to host the game.  All games begin at 12pm local time on 11/21/09.

Looks like Suny could be playing an E8 team this year. I hope they play RPI though.

Cadets win conference championship game 49-14 over Mount Ida.  Freshmen Orwin Etkins runs for 269 yards and five touchdowns.  First league championship ever.  Norwich has been playing football since 1893.

Congrats to Norwich!  You have to wonder if their experience playing in the E8 gave them the advantage in this first season. 

[Boxer7806]

Playing in the E8 without a doubt helped them in their inaugural season in the ECFC. Hopefully this will help them in years to come. Congrats to Norwich, job well done.

[Bison09]

Norwich is a good football team. It would have been a better match up if the championship game was Norwich vs. Gallaudet. Gallaudet lost to Norwich by only 7pts back during regular season. Gallaudet will be the creeper next season.

Former Norwich WR Pierre Garcon is featured in the Tom Haley article.

Kinda nice to have a former player in the Super Bowl.  I hope that Pierre remembers his time at Norwich.

Do any of you guys here on the ECFC board want to participate in the East Region fan poll as a voter?  It would be great to have a ECFC rep.

Ping AUKaz00 (see the related thread) if you want to sign up!

Didn't know where else to post this, but since this is SUNY-Maritime's conference I will add it here

Saw the Around the Region Article on the NY-Maritime coach getting mobilized to go to Afghanistan.  I am an Army National Guard member and a vet of Afghanistan.  I am also a regular on the OAC board, a proud former football player and ROTC Cadet from Capital.  I did 10 years on Active Duty and the last two in the Guard.  I understand fully what Coach Kendrick-Holmes is going through.  Just wanted to say to him Good Luck, God Bless, and Stay Safe.  It takes a special person to put on the uniform and serve the country.  Since he is a Naval Academy grad, I know he knew what he was getting into, yet he still swore an oath to defend this nation.  As he progressed in his coaching career, he knew this day could come.  When it did, it appears he has handled it in a first class manner.  I hope the results of his season are befitting a man of such outstanding moral turptiude.

There are a lot of Veterans on these pages (at least on our OAC page there are).  We take care of our own.  I know the Coach doesn't know me from Adam, but if anyone is a follower of SUNY-Maritime, please pass on to him my best wishes for a safe deployment as well as a great season and if there is ever anything that I could possibly do, I will (and that is the God's honest truth- even from 1,000 miles away for a guy I have never met- that's just what we do.  If you've never been in the service, you wouldn't understand).  SUNY-Maritime just became my second favorite D3 team because of Coach Kendrick-Holmes.

I am a veteran of the peacetime post-Viet Nam era, 4 years Ready Reserves, 8 years active duty.

Thanks for your service, coach.

Looks like the players are giving him a good season as a send off.  Good luck Coach.

Looks like Privateers off to a great start.  A testament to the coaching staff.
