So, the schools that could go D-III are Clarkson, Union, Colorado College 
(any other D-III schools?) that are playing up to D-I hockey.  D-II teams
like St. Cloud, Mankato, Huntsville and my Bemidji State (to name a few)
cannot go down to D-III as they are D-II schools in all their other
sports.  Just look at Minnesota-Crookston this year, they had to drop
hockey since their D-III conference, the MCHA, kicked them out since D-III
ruled that games against D-II schools would not count.

Oh, and.....  GO BEAVERS!!!!
