I cannot see this being a problem - in fact, it sounds like the 1992 HE
playoff championship is not at contention here.  And it shouldn't be.
No one knows what would have really happened if Ingraham didn't play
in those games he was apparently ineligible for, but he WAS eligible
for the tourney whichever way you look at it.  And Maine rolled
through it, as I suspect they would have done whoever they played.
They ended up meeting and beating UNH (2nd) for the title anyway, so
there's really nothing to any argument that Maine should lose the
playoff title...IMO.
