ltjets21 313 Posted May 16, 2016 On the topic of division 2 schools I read that d2 hockey does not have a national champion and only has 6 teams... is this true? If so what is the point of having it at all? 0 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
hettinger_rl 1,144 Posted May 17, 2016 For Minnesota I'll just post the ones that aren't on the D1 page. Some of the DII schools play D1 Hockey so they are on there. Minnesota: Concordia University St. Paul Golden Bears: Minnesota State University - Moorehead Dragons: University of Minnesota - Crookston: Southwest Minnesota State Mustangs: Winona State Warriors: 0 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

ICTknight 41 Posted May 17, 2016 Here is the Kansas schools minus Pittsburg State which was mentioned in an earlier post. Newman Jets (Wichita, KS) Washburn Ichabods and Lady Blues (Topeka, KS) Emporia State Hornets and Lady Hornets (Emporia, KS) Fort Hays State Tigers (Hays, KS) I love that Kansas doesnt do something stupid like University of Kansas at Emporia, Hays, Wichita, ect. It bugs me to see athletic identities like that. 1 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
hettinger_rl 1,144 Posted May 18, 2016 Anyone think they'll take these and actually put them on the mothership? IMO there's no reason not to. 0 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

If so what is the point of having it at all? They don't. Only the Northeast-10 sponsors it at that level, with only Stonehill, St. Anselm, SNHU, Assumption, St. Michael's, and Franklin Pierce sponsoring it at this level. Fellow NE-10 members Bentley and AIC (Atlantic Hockey), and Merrimack (Hockey East) sponsor it at the D-1 level. UMass Lowell used to be in the NE-10 and played in Hockey East before they moved all their sports up to Division 1. The teams play each other, in addition to a mix of D-3 and club teams. If I'm not mistaken, there's also no D-2 men's volleyball. 0 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

It is called the "National Collegiate Championship." There are only 40 some DI and DII men's volleyball teams. DIII men's volleyball is now over 50 teams and they have their own championship as of a few years ago. 0 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

stumpygremlin 372 Posted May 30, 2016 I've always liked that Humboldt one. I live in New Hampshire now, and there are three (soon to be two) D-2 schools in state: Franklin Pierce University Ravens in Rindge St. Anselm Hawks in Goffstown, which borders Manchester. They're moving down to Division 3. (Alumni are pissed, but I haven't heard anything rescinding the move.) They're angling to get into the NEWMAC. Southern New Hampshire University Penmen in Manchester. (They just bought the naming rights to the soon-to-be-former Verizon Wireless Arena.) All three are currently in the Northeast-10. 0 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
stumpygremlin 372 Posted May 30, 2016 On another note, I wouldn't be shocked if, eventually, Division 2 goes bye-bye. They seem to have many of the costs (scholarships and travel and other things) that the Division 1 schools have, but none of the TV revenue. 0 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

You are gonna have that with any college sports program that isn't D-1, even D-3 has scholarships for players it's just instead of being athletic scholarships they are academic. Same principle though. 1 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

We don't, however, offer athletic grant-in-aid. 3 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
