Your right Tim, it is a nice little rivalry forming.  I have been at
everyone of the Championships rooting for the Beavers except for one in
Huntsville (the mini-game series).  I wish I wouldn't have missed that one.
 
It would be nice to see these two teams continue with this rivalry.

UAH is a Division II school.  Starting in about the late-80s,
there was no championship for schools playing D-II in hockey.  As
a result, UAH opted up as a D-I independent for a few years.  When
D-II teams became eligible for a championship 5 or 6 seasons ago,
UAH dropped back down to D-II in hockey.   UAH has been playing D-II
for at least the past five seasons.  (They've won 2 titles and been
runner-up two other times during those five years.  All those series have
been against Bemidji State.  It's a good little rivalry.)
 
I think there's some stuff in the hockey3 archives about the D-II/III
championships that hockey-l readers might want to check out.
