Not sure if this has been discussed before but this is the first I've heard of it. (I posted on the ECFC football page as well)
So I'm working at the NECC women's basketball semi-final game the other day (Newbury College vs. Elms College), and the Newbury AD tells me that Hellenic College (small Greek Orthodox school in Boston) and Newbury have "combined" athletic departments and students at Hellenic College can play sports at Newbury College.
Now I read in the Boston Globe today that Mt. Ida and Lasell are looking to "merge" schools (something different than Newbury and Hellenic). Would this now mean that Lasell students could play football at Mt. Ida?
This seems to be a new thing, with Boston University "merging" with Wheelock as well. Obviously BU is D1 and Wheelock has several d3 programs. Not sure how that is going to work out in the future as well in terms of athletics.
