This year’s team features six juniors with twoyears of varsity experience including five players thatsaw significant time in the starting line-up overthe last two seasons. The group is led by theteam’s top hitter and pitcher from last seasonWhitney Schafman. Last year, Schafman batted.377 with nine doubles and 22 RBI.

CCIW HISTORY

College Conference of Illinois and Wisconsin History Entering its 65th season in 2010-11, the College Conference of Illinois

and Wisconsin (CCIW) enjoys a reputation as the “Best Small-College

Conference in the Nation.” In NCAA Division III competition, CCIW

schools have accounted for 40 national championships,

including 13 in men’s cross country, six in men’s basketball, five in

men’s outdoor track and field, four in football, three in women's soc-

cer, two apiece in men’s soccer, men’s indoor track and field and

women's outdoor track & field, and one apiece in women’s basketball,

baseball and women's indoor track and field. The conference was formed with nine charter members

(Augustana, Carthage, Elmhurst, Illinois College, Illinois Wesleyan,

Lake Forest, Millikin, North Central and Wheaton) on April 26, 1946,

in Jacksonville, Ill., and opened competition in the 1946-47 academic

year as the College Conference of Illinois. In 1967, the name was

changed to the College Conference of Illinois and Wisconsin, to rec-

ognize Carthage, which moved to Kenosha, Wis., in 1962 and Carroll,

which entered the conference in 1955. Carthage left the conference in

1952, but returned in 1961.

The CCIW sponsors 21 sports: baseball, men’s and women’s

basketball, men’s and women’s cross country, football, men’s and

women’s golf, men’s and women’s soccer, softball, men’s and

women’s swimming, men’s and women’s tennis, men’s and women’s

indoor track & field, men’s and women’s outdoor track & field,

volleyball and wrestling.
