Overview: In the first season where all 10 of its teams played against each other in a full round-robin, the New England Small College Athletic Conference (NESCAC) crowned the Trinity College Bantams of Hartford, Connecticut as its 2017 champion. The Bantams finished the 2017 campaign at 8-1 overall, with their lone loss coming to the Amherst College (Mass.) Mammoths in the next-to-last week of the season, on November 4. But the Bantams bounced back on the following weekend, November 11, as they rolled past Wesleyan, 28-3, in the season finale, while Williams upset Amherst, 31-24. Trinity's win, combined with Amherst's upset loss, allowed the Bantams to claim their second straight NESCAC crown. Meanwhile, Middlebury outlasted Tufts, 35-24, to finish the 2017 season tied with Amherst for second place in the NESCAC at 7-2 overall. With all of its squads choosing to sit out the NCAA Division III playoffs, expect the 2018 season to be just as competitive for the NESCAC.
