Notre Dame was a member of the WCHA from 1971/72 through 1980/81. Michigan, Michigan State, Michigan Tech, and Notre Dame left the WCHA and joined the CCHA in 1981/82. Michigan Tech returned, bringing along Northern Michigan from the CCHA in 1984/85. -- Erik Erik Biever [log in to unmask] GO GOPHERS! SKI-U-MAH!
