Reading Wayne's posting of Maine's schedule reminded me of something I watched all season on HOCKEY-L. Now that we're "out of season," I feel more comfortable pointing out a few small details: Alaska is abbreviated "AK"; Alabama gets "AL". University of Alaska-Fairbanks is known to all its alumni as "UAF"; while its sister school in Anchorage is known as "UAA". UAF's nickname is The Nanooks - an Eskimo word for Polar Bear. UAA goes by the nickname of Seawolves - no one has ever seen a real seawolf, but it sounds fierce, so they're happy with it. With both Alaskan schools about to become much more involved in the mainstream of Div. I hockey, I figure it's about time we got the abbreviations right... :) ---Steve Roth (UAF Class of '73) Canisius College Buffalo, NY BITNET: ROTH@CANISIUS
