And ironically enough, Cornell had a player disqualified before the NCAA
tournament that year (1970), forward and team captain Dick Bertrand, on the
grounds that he was too old or some such (he was 28, I think). But the Big Red
played anyway.

Not at the Div. I level. Alabama-Huntsville won the Div. II championship last
year with an undefeated mark of 26-0-3. I think Bemidji may have been unbeaten
when they won a Div. III championship in the '80s as well.
