>> Subject: Hockey NIT >> ------------------------------Mr. Baer is quite right; it was 1974 - >>Vermont's last year in D-II. Vermont >was invited after winning the eastern D-II championship (there was no >national tourney for any division other than D-I at the time). The NIHT was >held in Duluth, Minn. I can recall three of the four teams - Vermont, Lake >Superior State, and the host team Minn-Duluth. Vermont beat LSSU by one goal >(3-2 I think) on a Thursday night (I don't think Frank Cole officiated) and >played UM-D on Saturday afternoon and got beat 5-3 in a game that was not as >close as the final score indicated. >David Ketcham >UVM - 1978 Having never heard of this before, I thought I would look it up: (From the UMD Yearbook) 1973-74 (21-16-1) WCHA-6th . . #*St. Louis U. W 6-3 #*Vermont W 7-4 # - National Invitational Hockey Tournament * - Home Game That's all I could find. TF -- --------------------------------------------------------------------------- Anthony J.
