More than a few years, I'd say - Northland dropped football in 1976. Somehow I have missed ever looking into that team, but a brief search now failed to turn up any information or photographs.

The name could easily be confused with that of either Northland Community and Technical College (junior college in Minnesota which dropped football in 2019) or Morthland College (apparently a "countable opponent" team in Illinois which played one season only in 2016).

Yes, this one is in Ashland Wisconsin, so there are so many schools with the same name. You have this school listed as last played in 1976. Sadly, we are going to see more of these schools closing faster with a lot of them with football teams.
