Interesting, since the top two teams at the end of the year will be chosen
to play for the DivII national title.  Bemidji hasn't played any DivI
teams, nor do I think they have played any of the DivII teams.  Mercyhurst
has beaten UAH and handed the top DivIII West team, Wis-Stevens Point, its
only loss of the year.  Mankato has a weaker record but has played a tougher
schedule.  It sure will be odd if Bemidji makes the "Final Two" without
having played a single game against a DivI or DivII team.  I know they're
not scheduled to play either Mankato or UAH this year; Mankato and UAH will
play four head-to-head games over the remainder of the season, though,
which should do it for games among the top 5 DivII teams.
 
Anyone on here from Bemidji or who knows their schedule?  I have Mankato
and UAH's schedules and most scores.
