THE RFC MYC: Commonwealth Coast Conference (CCC)-(NCAA Division III)

 Commonwealth Coast Conference (CCC)-(NCAA Division III)

Overview: Four of the seven teams in the Commonwealth Coast Conference (CCC) combined to win 30 games overall in 2021, with Endicott rolling past Western New England 45-21 on October 9 to claim their conference's automatic bid to the NCAA Division III playoffs. The Gulls' season ended in the first round after losing to RPI, 20-14, to finish their season at 8-3 overall, while the Golden Bears fell to Merchant Marine, 63-35, in the New England Bowl series, to finish at 7-4 overall. Both teams finished CCC play at 5-1 in conference games.

On the other hand, two other teams fell way short of advancing to postseason play, despite winning a combined 15 games between them, as the Salve Regina University Seahawks finished the season at 8-2 overall, while the Husson University Eagles settled for a 7-3 overall record last fall. Both of those squads finished in a two-way tie for third place at 4-2 in CCC action.

Looking ahead to 2022, don't be surprised if the four aforementioned listed above find themselves doing battle for the CCC crown this fall.
