I'm kinda surprised they didn't go with the NEC for those sports, unless there's some bad blood between them and the NEC.
Bryant is in America East for most sports, and were in the OVC/Big South for football last year. They moved football to CAA Football starting this year.
Prior to that, they were full members in the NEC from 2008-2022.

Binghamton is an America East team that is an affiliate in the NEC for men's and women's tennis and men's golf because the AE doesn't sponsor tennis or golf.

I think you are right that there is some bad blood between Bryant and the NEC. Last year those 3 sports for Bryant were in the Southland Conference.
