From the Minneapolis Star Tribune, 2/23/92: "The WCHA structure committee recommended that Alaska-Anchorage be admitted to the league as an affiliate member for 1992-93 tournament play. "The committee also recommended that Alaska-Anchorage be granted full WCHA membership beginning with the 1993-94 season. Members will vote on the recommendation April 24." *** END OF QUOTE *** No details were reported on what "affiliate" means, but I think it's safe to presume that it is similar to Alaska-Fairbanks' affiliate membership in the CCHA, in which it will participate in next year's CCHA tournament. I hope that the league votes to give UAA full membership, but I don't think it's a sure thing. -- Erik
