Maine Intercollegiate Athletic Association

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

The Maine Intercollegiate Athletic Association was an intercollegiate athletic football conference that existed from 1893 to 1973. The conference's four members were all located in the state of Maine.[1] Maine was a joint member of the MIAA and the Yankee Conference from 1946 to 1964; the remaining three colleges now constitute the Colby-Bates-Bowdoin Consortium and compete in the New England Small College Athletic Conference.
