Conference teams and information

Two teams begin the season with new head coaches. Bethel's current coach is Martin Mathis.[3] Mathis replaces James Dotson, who took over the role for one season[4] after the sudden resignation of Travis Graber on July 27, 2012.[5]
Bethany's Manny Matsakis is also new to his team and a first-year head coach. Matsakis was announced as the new head coach for the Swedes in March 2013 to replace Jamie Cruce after his resignation.[6]
