the wcha has 10 teams and an unbalanced schedule as it is.  If the league
adds UAF, then the league has 11 teams and a mess.  If the league adds
UAF and somebody else, then there are 12 teams and possibly a mess.
With 12 teams, there is the possibility of dividing as 2 groups of 6,
3 groups of 4, or 4 groups of 2.  The 3 groups of 4 is reminiscent of
the National football league several years ago.  A possible division
of 3 groups of 4 is
A               B               C
WEST            Northeast       Southeast
Fairbanks       NMU             Minnesota
Anchorage       Tech            St Cloud
CC              Duluth          Wisconsin
Denver          North Dakota    ????
 
You could then name the Northeast Division as the Highway 2 division
and the Southeast division the I-94 division.
This makes sense if ???? is geographically close to I-94
 
Now if the league buys two airplanes, they can do the transport fairly
easily, using one plane for division A and the other for Division B
 
other people can come up with other groupings.
 
please look for my tongue and my cheek...
