Hamilton to become full-time member of NESCAC in 2011

    The presidents of the NESCAC's 11 member institutions voted on Wednesday to make Hamilton a full-time member of the conference in time for the 2011-2012 school year, the NESCAC announced yesterday.
    Since 1995, 21 of the Continentals' 28 sports programs have competed in the NESCAC, while the remaining seven squads have been members of the Liberty League. Wednesday's vote means that Hamilton's field hockey, men's and women's soccer, men's and women's basketball and men's and women's lacrosse teams will retain their Liberty League affiliation for two more seasons before joining the NESCAC.
