The Maine Intercollegiate Athletic Association, also known as the Maine Intercollegiate Athletic Conference, was an intercollegiate athletic football conference that existed from 1893 to 1973. The conference's four members were all located in the state of Maine.[1] Maine was a joint member of the MIAA and the Yankee Conference from 1947 to 1964; the remaining three colleges now constitute the Colby-Bates-Bowdoin Consortium and compete in the New England Small College Athletic Conference.
