1. BREAKING: Saint Anselm To Join NEWMAC; Transition To DIII

“Saint Anselm College has announced that it will begin a transition to the New England Women’s and Men’s Athletic Conference (NEWMAC) in Division III, aligning the College with one of the nation’s most academically prestigious and philosophically aligned conferences.
The move reflects a deliberate and mission-centered decision, one that positions Saint Anselm to elevate the student-athlete experience while aligning with institutions that share its commitment to academic rigor, competitive excellence, and holistic student development.
“We are confident this decision is in the best interest of the Saint Anselm student experience and the long-term future of the College,” said Saint Anselm President Joseph A. Favazza, Ph.D. “The NCAA landscape is changing rapidly, driven by Name, Image, and Likeness (NIL) financial opportunities, an active transfer portal that leads to team instability, and growing uncertainty among conferences. After careful consideration, we have chosen a proactive path – one that aligns with our mission and allows Saint Anselm to maintain control of its athletic future.”
Saint Anselm will complete its final year in the Northeast 10 Conference during the 2026–27 academic year before officially beginning the transition on July 1, 2027. The College is expected to achieve full Division III membership by 2029–30, pending NCAA Division III Membership Committee approval.
"Through the cooperation of the NEWMAC leadership team, athletic directors, and institution Presidents, the conference has developed a strategic plan that includes targeted expansion. Saint Anselm's academic stature, community profile, and storied history make them a wonderful new member of the NEWMAC family," expresses Babson College President and Chair of NEWMAC Presidents Council, Stephen Spinelli.
With the addition of the Hawks, the NEWMAC is excited to expand its New England footprint, adding New Hampshire to its current member states of Connecticut, Massachusetts, and Rhode Island. Saint Anselm is expected to compete in 16 of the NEWMAC's 21 sports, increasing sport sponsorship and championship field sizes while further enhancing the conference's already competitive profile and overall student-athlete experience.
