        Yes, UAA was the NCAA DivII Basketball Runnerup several years ago.
They lost to another school that plays in DivII for all sports except
ice hockey, UMass Lowell, formerly the University of Lowell.  I
always thought it was ironic that both schools met in the DivII men's
basketball championship, when the premier sport at both schools is
men's ice hockey.
