Alexei Marcoux asks:
>why don't schools like UConn just drop their hockey programs to D-3?
This comes up every now & then. Under NCAA regulations, schools
whose athletic programs are classified as D-I may not sponsor any
sport at a lower level (D-II or D-III); i.e., if a school's program
is D-I, ALL of its sports must be played according to D-I
regulations. In hockey, this produces the "Other Six": UConn,
Canisius, Fairfield, Villanova, Holy Cross, and Iona. All of these
schools play at what some call the "small college" level: a mixture
of D-I, D-II and D-III teams.
