From that standpoint, this isn't really much of a change. We play all those teams already anyway.
This is going to provide a solid, committed schedule. It offers some security and some very good competition.
There hasn't been a ripple of a problem. I haven't felt or sensed an iota of anything negative. We had talked about it a year ago when they didn't come, so they all knew this was coming.
It's cyclical. They have been up for a long time, and now Eastern teams are starting to win some of those games.
We're playing in both leagues. We'll be playing in the Mid-Eastern Conference, but there's still going to be an Eastern Upper Peninsula Conference and EUPC championship awarded at the end of the season.
