Two things to note about Army's opponents:
--The Merrimack College Warriors (North Andover, MA), are transitioning to D1 and are now members of the Northeast Conference.

--Long Island University has merged its Post and Brooklyn campuses' athletic programs. So long D1 LIU Brooklyn Blackbirds and D2 LIU Post Pioneers. Hello D1 LIU Sharks. Naturally, some alumni aren't digging the name change.

That's an easy conference change in terms of the name. They have been members for years in the D2 Northeast 10.

The NEC has seen a lot of change over the years. Past members include Monmouth, Quinnipiac, Marist, Rider, Siena, Loyola, UMBC, and Towson. Five of those teams are now in the MAAC and a sixth (Loyola) was a long-time MAAC member as well. Loyola is one of three PL members who were once in the MAAC.
