THE RFC MYC: Midwest Conference (MWC)-(NCAA Division III)

2017 Midwest Conference Final Standings (Courtesy of the Midwest Conference)

Overview: The two division champions-St. Norbert in the North, and Monmouth (Ill.) in the South-advanced to the 2017 Midwest Conference Championship Game on November 11 in Monmouth, Illinois. In a low-scoring game, the Scots outlasted the Green Knights 9-6 to claim the conference championship, as well as the automatic bid to the NCAA Division III playoffs. Monmouth's season ended in the first round of the D-III playoffs, as Trine trounced the Scots 63-24. 

As for 2018, who knows what could happen in the Midwest Conference? Could Monmouth and St. Norbert be headed towards a potential rematch? Or will other teams step up to move one step closer to postseason play this fall? Like the saying goes, "stay tuned".
