Yankee Conference
The Yankee Conference was a collegiate sports conference in the eastern United States. From 1947 to 1976, it sponsored competition in many sports, but was a football-only league from mid-1976 until its dissolution in 1996.

A committee formed by the remaining four members, land-grant colleges and universities representing Connecticut, Maine, New Hampshi ...
