July 2, 20215 yr I stumbled across this but both schools will add sprint football as sports. They are part of a new conference/league. Sprint football has a weight limit of 178 lbs for players. I don’t think either college has named a HC.
July 2, 20215 yr "Sprint Football is a full-contact, intercollegiate, varsity sport and has the same rules as regular college football, except that all players must weigh 178.0 pounds or less. The league has been in existence since prior to World War II." https://www.sprintfootball.com/about

July 17, 20215 yr Bellarmine has been pondering starting a football program for years. I wonder if this is a way to dip their toe in the water?
July 17, 20215 yr My Daughter attends Midway and plays soccer. She told me about this a few months ago. I’ll probably go check out a game or 2. Should be a lot of speed on the field all the time.

I’m not saying you’re knocking it. When I lived in the Philadelphia area, there was a semi-pro 180lb and under league that I played in. There were a bunch of teams in the area, and was a lot of fun to play. There were many legit, former D1 athletes that were playing. Little bit different because this wasn't college based, but was a pretty big league.
