BETHLEHEM, Pa. --- The Moravian University Department of Athletics is hosting the inaugural Landmark Conference Football Media Day on Wednesday, August 2 in Johnston Hall with the event live streamed at https://landmarknetwork.tv/moravian/ beginning at 10:55 a.m.

The day will feature 15-minute interview sessions with each head coach as well as student-athletes from the schools. Frank Rossi from In The (D3FB) Huddle will be the emcee for the event. First-year Greyhounds' Head Coach Jeff Long and Moravian players senior running back Nate Boyle, juniors quarterback Jared Jenkins and defensive back Chad Newhard and sophomore linebacker Clay Basile are the first interview at 11:00 a.m.

Following the Greyhounds will be Wilkes University, Keystone College, Susquehanna University, Juniata College, The Catholic University of America and Lycoming College. Once each school has had its interview session, Rossi will welcome the seven head coaches and Landmark Conference Commissioner Katie Boldvich for the final group interview of the day.

In February 2022, the conference Executive Board unanimously voted to add football as a league-sponsored sport beginning in the Fall of 2023. The addition increases the Landmark's NCAA sport offering to 23 and marks the first new sport offered by the conference since the league added Women's Golf in 2018.

The inaugural Landmark Conference season will feature six conference games for each member as well as two non-conference crossover games with the Empire 8 Conference. The final two games on each team's 10-game schedule are non-conference contests scheduled by the schools with Moravian set to travel to rival Muhlenberg College on Friday, September 1 and host The Apprentice School (Va.) on Saturday, September 16 in the 2023 home opener for the Greyhounds.

The Landmark Conference and Old Dominion Athletic Conference (ODAC) have also announced a four-year bowl series partnership entitled the Chesapeake Bowl Challenge. The Chesapeake Bay, the natural split between the two conferences, serves as the series' namesake. The format of the series will feature two games with four teams (two from each conference) playing in either the Cape Henry Bowl or the Cape Charles Bowl. Cape Henry and Cape Charles serve as the northern and southern gateways of the Chesapeake Bay. Each conference will be represented by the top two teams from their respective league standings that do not qualify for the NCAA postseason.
