Indian72 Posted January 23, 2019 Share Posted January 23, 2019 Pending approval from league principals, Marian will move to North Division of NIC for football in 2020, replacing departing Mishawaka. NIC North in 2020 will be Marian, St. Joe, Penn, Adams, New Prairie & Elkhart HS. NIC South: Riley, Clay, Washington, Jimtown, Glenn & Bremen.

XStar Posted January 24, 2019 Share Posted January 24, 2019 I think I saw that Penn and Mishawaka won't be playing in 2020 or 2021. Is that true? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fairfield02 Posted January 25, 2019 Share Posted January 25, 2019 I think the new divisions in the NIC football conference seem to be spot on. In 2018, the NIC was a tough conference, and this will just help the conference stay competitive. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest DT Posted January 25, 2019 Share Posted January 25, 2019 I can see Mishawaka wanting to distance themselves from The NIC. There is always a little bad blood and some animosity when a school leaves a conference, especially an original member like MHS. They are likely looking at the NLC as a fresh new start.

That rivalry is as good as I've seen in high school sports. Got to be disappointing for many players on both sides in the Class of '22 who may never get the chance to play in it. I'm surprised nobody has found a way to get that game scheduled still. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Minor renavations at most and it has held over 2000 students before. I know, I was there Move LaSalle kids to Washington. I am not as familar with the elementary set ups so I don't know what to do with them. So you would have 2 5a and 1 4a with the high schools.

johnny U Posted January 28, 2019 Share Posted January 28, 2019 Combine Riley and Washington, which would give you an enrollment approximately the same as Adams.

johnny U Posted January 29, 2019 Share Posted January 29, 2019 Congratulations to Todd Stammich, new Washington head football coach. Washington is fortunate to get a coach of Todd's caliber. Todd has the ability to not only get kids to play football but to develop and keep them out for the whole season. Are we going to have another team in the NIC playing "Bart Ball"?

Indian72 Posted January 31, 2019 Author Share Posted January 31, 2019 Last night on Sports Beat they had an interview with the Mishawaka AD Penn is off the football schedule in 2020 - Mishawaka will open with Marian and then play East Noble followed by 7 conference games Marian is the opening game for now - he did not mention how many years. When they joined the NLC they had week 1-2 open to play Penn - Penn and MHS have been talking. Penn wants to keep opening with Valpo In 2020 Penn has a contract with Laporte MHS is open to play Penn in week 2 and Dean said he would sign a 10 year contract to make it happen. He is hoping that in 2021 they might play again in football but Penn has to have the same feeling Talks have been ongoing In certain other sports they will continue to play Penn if it can be worked in 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I always assumed Mishawaka would simply slide into Elkhart Memorial's spot in the NLC schedule (out of conference games week 1 and week 6). If they are going to be playing East Noble in week 2, I wonder if that means the Concord vs. Jimtown game will also be moving to week 2 and Mishawaka and Concord will play week 6. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
