We here at StubHub like to keep you abreast of all the little details about the college hoops world, including nuances like the change in name of Centenary’s athletic conference. In case you were wondering, using the term Mid-Continent Conference is now very much out.
In is the new Summit League. Though they may be mid-majors, they will not be Mid-Continents, effective officially on June 1. The name change happened because nobody uses the word continent anymore and because summit is a much cooler and easier flowing name. Said the new Summit League commissioner Tom Douple, “The Summit League provides a mental image to reach the top, both academically and athletically.”
All of the teams in the conference will remain the same, and Oral Roberts has not given any indication that they are considering a name change at this time. NCAA Basketball tickets for all conferences are available at StubHub.com.
