East’s Departure from MVC Creates NEIC Discussions

Waterloo East recently voted to leave the Mississippi Valley Conference after the ’22-’23 school year. The Trojans will join a new conference comprised of teams leaving the CIML.

This news has prompted fans of prep sports to wonder what the MVC might do and how this all could affect Waverly-Shell Rock, as the Northeast Iowa Conference will be down to six teams beginning this Fall as Oelwein is leaving to join the NICL.

Go-Hawk athletic director Greg Bodensteiner talked about that with Matt Ray on June 16th.
