THE RFC MYC: Empire 8 Conference (E8)-(NCAA Division III)

Empire 8 Conference (E8)--(NCAA Division III)

Overview: The Alfred University Saxons enjoyed one of their most successful seasons in program history, advancing to the quarterfinals of the NCAA Division III playoffs before losing to the University of Mount Union. With the loss to UMU, the Saxons finished the 2016 season at 12-1 overall. The remaining teams in the Empire 8 Conference all finished last year with at least two losses in league play, while Alfred finished conference play unbeaten at 8-0.

A quick look ahead to the 2017 season will bring about changes to the E8, as Ithaca leaves to join the Liberty League. That leaves the Empire 8 Conference with eight teams for this fall.
