'Competitive equity' sent Bears west
by Larry Mahoney, Bangor Daily News

Competitive equity among the teams in the NCAA hockey tournament field
was the justification used by the NCAA selection committee in sending
the University of Maine to the Midwest Regional for Saturday's
first-round game.Maine fans were hoping their Black Bears would play in
one of the two eastern regionals. Instead, 24-9-5 Maine was the only
one of the four Hockey East teams sent to the west.

Maine plays in the Midwest Regional as the No. 2 seed and faces third
seed Michigan at the Wolverines' Yost Ice Arena in Saturday's 3:30 p.m.
game.

(article also notes that administrators at Portland's Cumberland County
Civic Center are considering submitting a bid to host a regional in the future.)
