I hope they do add women’s wrestling at some point. Maybe it just isn’t feasible at this point. Hopefully if they do they also start a men’s volleyball program. Apologies for missing out on the men’s lacrosse team.

Once the wrestling program is launched, Montevallo will have ten sports for men and ten sports for women. They don’t sponsor football so they probably have a pretty even scholarship distribution. Sounds like the definition of gender equity.

Here it is. Minutes ago, Montevallo officially announces the addition of MEN'S wresting starting in 2023. This gives them 11m/11w sports.

Redeemer University, Clinton College and Covenant College are joining the NCCAA for the 22-23 year.

Redeemer U, Hamilton ON, is also in the Ontario Colleges Athletic Association.
Clinton from South Carolina, is currently in the USCAA. No word if they will be dual members.
Covenant is currently also a D3 member and is from Lookout Mountain Georgia.

Atlantis University in Miami will join the USCAA for 2022-23, adding an additional football program to the association along with Atlantis’ other 11 programs.

The USCAA has not announced all of its other new members for next year yet however.

If I remember right, was Clinton a 2 year college? They must have gone 4 year recently like Dean.

Upper Iowa looks like they're trading trips to Minnesota and the Dakotas for trips to Missouri and Illinois. There is also a majority of private schools in the GLVC, where there is a majority of public schools in the NSIC.

I wonder if a renaming is in order for this conference. There is only one school in the Chicagoland area and one remaining in Indiana. The rest are in Missouri and downstate Illinois. Not much Great Lakes and a whole lot of Valley.

Basically, Mills will cease to exist as an athletic program after 2022-23. Not even without considered to be a branch campus for the futurely-merged Northeastern University.

UIU has been hosting soccer in the GLVC, so there is some history there.

Jamestown isn’t a huge surprise. First clue that they wanted more was when they traded playing Dickey, Valley and Mayville to travel to play in the GPAC. It was a puzzling move to me. If this news is true, it could have been a step up in competition that wanted as a path to D2. They haven’t done particularly well in the GPAC-not by a long shot. But they have had pretty strong hoops historically so that may their main interest. And joining Mary and Minot isn’t a bad setup either.

Upper Iowa men's soccer is in the GLIAC and was previously in the MIAA. UIU women's lacrosse is in the GLIAC as part of a GLIAC-NSIC agreement. UIU bowling has been a GLVC member since the team's inaugural season in 2019-20. All other Peacock sports compete in their primary conference, the NSIC. Bowling is the only sport to have ever been affiliated with the GLVC. Upper Iowa's history as a D2 member dates only to 2006.

Indianapolis wants out GLVC. They don't have anybody close by which from reports, OVC were in talks with them.

What do they do with mens soccer?

The scholarships in ncaa are different than naia. The formula doesn’t translate well.

To be fair, Upper Iowa does fit the GLVC's footprint, and it would be the conference's first full member from the state of Iowa. That's if the rumors and sources would somehow be officially confirmed.

And if UIndy does get the call to commit to D-I in the future, they would definitely fit in the OVC (with or without Grand Valley State involved).

Always exciting to see a sport reinstated; welcome UN-K men's tennis


University of Nebraska at Kearney reinstating men’s tennis thanks to private donor

KEARNEY – The University of Nebraska at Kearney will once again have a men’s tennis program, beginning in 2023-24.

The decision, announced today by UNK Director of Athletics Marc Bauer at a news conference, comes four years after men’s tennis was eliminated as part of $2.8 million in university budget reductions.

UNK is able to bring back men’s tennis after a private donor agreed to create a $3.4 million endowment that will fully fund the program’s operating and scholarship needs.

“This is another exciting, proud day for Kearney and the Lopers. This is big for the university and UNK Athletics, and I am thankful for everyone who has been involved in helping reinstate the program,” Bauer said.

Meanwhile, the world goes on elsewhere....

NAIA Thomas University, Thomasville GA, is joining the Southern States Athletic Conference in 2023-24. They are currently a member of the Sun Conference, which is mostly Florida schools. For Football, which the SSAC doesn't sponsor, Thomas will continue as an affiliate of the Sun Conference.

The SSAC scores another one today. Tennessee Southern to Rejoin Southern States Athletic Conference. UT Southern, previously known as Martin Methodist, left the SSAC for the Mid-South Conference just a few years ago. Now they are back.

They just cut the ribbon for a pretty nice on-campus facility not too long ago, so it makes sense. I do kind of wonder who in central Nebraska has such a thing for tennis and that kind of cash to flash, though.

Perhaps I’m missing this detail, but what conference is UNK joining now because of the mens tennis addition? I’ve never heard of a tennis promoted realignment lol.
