Mustangs take 'Heart' with new divisions
Mount Mercy University has been placed in the North Division of the Heart of America Conference for the 2015-16 school year as the school gets ready to join its new league.
There will be five teams from Iowa, one from Missouri and one from Nebraska in the North Division. Three of the Iowa schools - Clarke, William Penn and Grand View - are moving with Mount Mercy from the defunct Midwest Collegiate Conference into the Heart of America.
The fifth Iowa college in the North Division is Graceland, which is already a member of the league. Culver-Stockton (Mo.) and Peru State (Nebraska) will complete the seven-team North Division.
