As ice hockey is limited to a much smaller number of almost exclusively Northern schools, there is a completely different conference structure for teams.

For example, the Hockey East men's conference consists of one ACC school, one Big East school, four schools from America East, one from the A-10, one CAA school, and two schools from the D-II Northeast Ten Conference, whereas the CCHA and WCHA both have some Big Ten representation, plus Division II and

Also, the divisional structure is truncated, with Division II competition in the sport abolished in 1999.
