Matthew,
The two Major Junior Teams in Seattle and Tacoma (plus others in Western
Washington) far outdraw the Div I College Teams!! Plus, a minor league
professional team is coming to Tacoma next year. Not that the Pacific
Northwest shouldn't have a college team, but it would have some tough
competition for fans. A recent Seattle/Tacoma game had over 10,000
attendance, and those teams are quite sucessful at that level.
