It seems a western bias is showing again.  Boston University won
three NCAA Championships in the seventies, the same as Minnesota
(Wisconsin won two), including back-to-back titles in 1971 and 1972.
BU also won 7 Beanpots, five ECAC titles (including four straight)
and played in seven NCAA Tournaments.  I think that qualifies as
setting a standard.
