For the same reason that WMPL radio in Hancock, MI (probably the most rinky-dink radio station I've ever listened to :-) does a national college hockey ranking: Because someone there is willing to go through the effort to do it. Seriously, I haven't seen the New York Times or the Washington Post express large amounts of interest in college hockey. Most of the press coverage is due to media in places where college hockey is popular -- and the majority of Division 1 teams are not located in big cities. - Garrett Lanzy (Michigan Tech '84, Go Huskies -- beat dem Gophers!) P.S. For those who don't know, WMPL's sister station (WZRK) broadcasts Michigan Tech hockey games... thus the affiliation with college hockey.
