UK#1fanisback Posted March 22, 2018 Share Posted March 22, 2018 What division is TMC playing in this year? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gchs_uk9 Posted March 22, 2018 Share Posted March 22, 2018 I've heard NAIA but can't find any articles that say anything more than they are leaving the Presidents' Conference in Division III. I'd assume a move to NAIA would put them in the Mid-South or Mid-States, but none of that is clear in what I've ready. Perhaps just an Independent.

I know they play Hanover this year but I noticed one team they play was a D2 team. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jack of all Trades Posted March 22, 2018 Share Posted March 22, 2018 I would think that they are a Division III independent, at least this year. Not to sure what the future holds however. Would love to see them join the Mid-South Conference. How about posting a schedule for us. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

rjs4470 Posted March 22, 2018 Share Posted March 22, 2018 I heard it was NAIA or D2. I've heard (from a former player who is still close to the program) the plan is to play an independent D3 schedule this year, and then move to D2. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

rjs4470 Posted March 23, 2018 Share Posted March 23, 2018 I heard NAIA/Mid-South. I would think that NAIA would make more sense, especially for the rest of the athletic programs at the school. D2 is a pretty big jump and would require lots of travel. But the person I'm close to keeps insisting it's going to be D2. I've also heard that from a recent recruit. But I can't say for sure that either is source is absolutely correct. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Are those all road games? Three home and seven road? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rjal Posted March 23, 2018 Share Posted March 23, 2018 I heard from a very reliable source one year independent D3 then NAIA. The same conference Georgetown is in. D2 is a lot of travel and apparently the NCAA is making it harder to get in with enrollment requirements etc. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My question is why are they moving out of D3? And do they have to move all sports to NAIA? I'm aware of schools having different sports playing at different levels of the NCAA, but don't know of any that have some sports as NAIA, and other sports with the NCAA.

You can't participate in NAIA and NCAA simultaneously. There are a handful of teams that have sports in multiple levels of NCAA but only in baseball and hockey and they were grandfathered in back in the early 1990s.
