I should know this because RIT and other Rochester area D-III schools have
played in the NCAA Lacrosse playoffs, but when are the D-II and D-III semi's
played?

I'd imagine that many of those attending the D-I Hockey championships would
attend one or two more hockey games, especially if they are NCAA Finals.  When
the Phinal Phour was in St. Paul a few years ago, several hockey-l people went
to a St. Paul Vulcan's game, but we hockey-l-er's are pretty strange...  But,
do you really think the NC$$ would "include" two more games in the current
pricing???  I'm not sure a lot of people would want to dish out an additional
$40 - $50.  If I'm there, I'd probably pay a little extra, but having
additional games would not be a factor in deciding whether or not to attend the
Championships.
