New England Small College Athletic Conference (NESCAC)-(NCAA Division III)
Overview: The Trinity College Bantams of Hartford, Connecticut handed the Amherst College Mammoths of Massachusetts their first and only loss of the 2018 season, pulling out a hard-fought 27-16 win on November 3. The Bantams then pitched a 9-0 shutout over Wesleyan on the road the following week to win their third straight New England Small College Athletic Conference (NESCAC) championship, finishing 8-1 overall.
With none of the ten NESCAC teams participating in the NCAA Division III playoffs, the emphasis once again will be placed upon the nine-game round-robin schedule that starts on September 14. If Trinity is to win its fourth straight conference title, the Bantams must overcome the loss of 15 seniors who graduated from last year's squad. Don't be surprised if Amherst (8-1 in 2018) and Tufts (7-2) gives the Bantams a run for their money this season. Also, don't count out the trio that finished last fall in a three-way tie for fourth place at 5-4 in Middlebury, Wesleyan, and Williams.
