THE RFC MYC: Northeast 10 Conference (NE10)-(NCAA Division II)

Northeast 10 Conference (NE10)-(NCAA Division II)

Overview: The 2022 season turned out to be a season of unmet expectations for the Northeast 10 Conference (NE10), as the Assumption University Greyhounds and the University of New Haven Chargers shared the conference championship at 6-1 in NE10 action. 

However, once the NCAA Division II playoffs arrived, both squads saw their respective seasons end in heartbreaking fashion, losing in the first round. Assumption fell to Slippery Rock, 17-14, while New Haven lost to Shepherd, 16-13. Both the Greyhounds and Chargers finished the 2022 season at 8-3 overall.

Looking ahead to 2023, expect the Bentley University Falcons (7-3, 5-2 in 2022) to challenge Assumption and New Haven for the NE10 title. But they must do that under a new head coach in Saj Thakkar, who replaced Alvin Reynolds in that role during the offseason. All three of Bentley's losses last fall came by eight points or less, as well as by a combined 17 points in all.

Finally, the NE10's football membership will increase by one program, as the Post University Eagles of Waterbury, Connecticut will join the conference as an associate member in 2024. That move will give the conference eight schools playing football by then.
