Charlie's post of the Air Force schedule brings up an interesting topic. Why are the service academies so uneven in their scheduling? I mean, REALLY! Colorado College followed by Villanova??? Villanova is not even in the ECAC East let alone being one of the stronger "upper level" D3 teams. The same inconsistency was exhibited by the Army schedule last year. I think that in general the bottom quarter or third of D1 is about equivalent to the top third of the "upper level" D3. (For those not familiar with D3, it is split roughly into two levels.) That's a pretty large group of teams. I'm wondering if the service academies have SO much trouble scheduling as independents that this is what causes the strength of schedule to be so uneven from weekend to weekend? -- Dick Tuthill HOCKEY-L is for discussion of college ice hockey; send information to [log in to unmask], The College Hockey Information List.
