Michigan Intercollegiate Athletics Association (MIAA)
Preseason Press Release
Quick Analysis: Despite falling well short of postseason play in 2015, many of the coaches expect the Adrian College Bulldogs (7-3 overall) to be the "top dogs" in the Michigan Intercollegiate Athletic Association in 2016. But the other "A" team in the conference hopes to mount a serious challenge, as defending champion Albion (9-2 overall, 5-1 in the MIAA) looks to add yet another league title to its trophy case. Don't count out Olivet (9-1, 5-1) either.
North Coast Athletic Conference (NCAC)
Preseason Press Release
Quick Analysis: Despite a coaching change in Don Morel at Wabash, the Little Giants were still chosen as the near-unaminous favorite to claim yet another NCAC crown this fall. Morel replaces Erik Raeburn, who stepped down during the offseason to take over a struggling FCS Savannah State program. Meanwhile, it might be a close race for second place in the conference between Wittenberg and DePauw.
College Conference of Illinois and Wisconsin (CCIW)
Preseason Press Release
Quick Analysis: Expect a tight two-team in the CCIW this fall, as Wheaton (11-1 overall) edged out North Central (7-3 overall) for the favorite's tag in that conference. Despite their struggles in non-conference play last fall, the Cardinals still managed to finish CCIW play at 6-1 in 2015. As for the Thunder, they advanced to the second round of the NCAA Division III playoffs, losing to Wisconsin-Whitewater. Fans of both teams should mark October 15 on their calendars. That's when Wheaton and North Central will square off in the "de-facto" CCIW championship game.
