ABOUT THE NORTHEAST-10 CONFERENCE

The Northeast-10 Conference is an NCAA Division II conference that was established in 1979. The conference consists of 15 member institutions located throughout the Northeast in the states of Connecticut, Massachusetts, New Hampshire, New York and Vermont. The institutions that make up the Northeast-10 are Adelphi University (Garden City, N.Y.), American International College (Springfield, Mass.), Assumption College (Worcester, Mass.), Bentley University (Waltham, Mass.), Franklin Pierce University (Rindge, N.H.), Le Moyne College (Syracuse, N.Y.), Merrimack College (North Andover, Mass.), University of New Haven (West Haven, Conn.), Pace University (Pleasantville, N.Y.), Saint Anselm College (Manchester, N.H.), Saint Michael’s College (Colchester, Vt.), The College of Saint Rose (Albany, N.Y.), Southern Connecticut State University (New Haven, Conn.), Southern New Hampshire University (Manchester, N.H.), and Stonehill College (Easton, Mass.). The conference’s 15 member institutions are spread geographically from Syracuse, N.Y. to Waltham, Mass. and from Colchester, Vt. to Garden City, N.Y. Many of the members are located in or around the metropolitan areas of Albany, Boston, Manchester, New Haven, Worcester, and New York City. The Northeast-10 was proud to welcome the New Haven and Adelphi in the conference’s latest expansion, adding to the powerful union of strong academic and athletic institutions. The Northeast-10 has evolved into a membership committed to competitive athletics programs that emphasize the education, both on and off the field, of more than 6,000 student athletes. Among the many accomplishments of these institutions are NCAA Division II national championships in women’s basketball, women’s cross country, field hockey, men’s lacrosse, women’s lacrosse, men’s soccer, women’s soccer, women’s track and field, and men’s and women’s swimming and diving. Le Moyne claimed the 2013 NCAA Division II Men’s Lacrosse Championship last May with an 11-10 victory over Mercyhurst in Philadelphia.

The conference is coming off a successful 2012-13 season, as the Le Moyne men’s lacrosse team won the Division II national championship with an 11-10 over Mercyhurst at Lincoln Financial Field in Philadelphia, Pa. The UMass Lowell field hockey team, now departed for Division I along with the rest of the school’s varsity programs, advanced to the national title game in December 2012. The Adelphi women’s lacrosse, Merrimack field hockey and Saint Rose women’s soccer teams were all national semifinalists. Four Northeast-10 programs also made the national quarterfinals in 2012-13: Franklin Pierce baseball and men’s basketball, New Haven volleyball and So. New Hampshire men’s soccer. Individually, Southern Connecticut’s Amanda Thomas (pictured, right) won the national title in the 200 IM at the 2013 NCAA Swimming & Diving Championships. The win was her third in the event in as many years, as she graduated a four-time national champion and was twice named Swimmer of the Meet at the NCAA Championships. In all, 50 different Northeast-10 teams representing 15 conference institutions were selected to participate in an NCAA Championship during the 2012-13 academic year. Including cross country, swimming & diving and track & field appearances in NCAA Championships, a total of 80 Northeast-10 teams were national qualifiers. From the field of play to inside the classroom, the Northeast-10 honored a number of student-athletes for their academic accomplishments. Over 50 percent of all conference student-athletes earned a 3.0 GPA throughout the 2012-13 academic year and were named to the Commissioner’s Honor Roll as a result. An astounding 138 student-athletes earned a perfect 4.0 GPA in the fall before 184 reached the benchmark in the spring. The Northeast-10 also honored 247 student-athletes as members of its academic all-conference teams.

Southern Connecticut’s Amanda Thomas was named the 2013 NCAA Championship Swimmer of the Meet.

The Northeast-10 also remains focused on its community endeavors, as its fundraising donations for Make-A-Wish is more than any other Division II conference in the country the past decade. The conference also announced a formal partnership last fall with Team IMPACT, a non-profit organization that matches children with life-threatening illnesses with college sports teams. Currently, more than 35 Northeast-10 programs are currently matched with a Team IMPACT teammate. Through the establishment and enforcement of regulations, the conference aims to encourage policies that enable intercollegiate athletics programs to contribute to and be considered an integral part of the total educational offerings at our member institutions. The Northeast-10 can look to a long history of success including the growth from seven original member institutions to more than double its size 34 years later, the contention for and winning of multiple national championships, and the recognition of student-athlete performances off the field and in the classroom.
