New England Hockey Conference

rdfs:comment

The New England Hockey Conference (known as ECAC East prior to 2015-16 season) is a league in NCAA Men's Division III and Women's Division III. The women's conference has been unique in that it has been home to schools at the D-I, D-II, and D-III levels. However, this appears to be changing for the 2017-18 season as the conference appears to be coming an all D-III member conference. The Holy Cross Crusaders are D-I in all other programs and have announced that they are elevating the program to D-I as what may be part of a move by the school to be joining Hockey East at either the men's level (which would force the school to make the women's program D-I) or the eventual inclusion of both programs in Hockey East.

The New England Hockey Conference (known as ECAC East prior to 2015-16 season) is a league in NCAA Men's Division III and Women's Division III. The women's conference has been unique in that it has been home to schools at the D-I, D-II, and D-III levels. However, this appears to be changing for the 2017-18 season as the conference appears to be coming an all D-III member conference. The Holy Cross Crusaders are D-I in all other programs and have announced that they are elevating the program to D-I as what may be part of a move by the school to be joining Hockey East at either the men's level (which would force the school to make the women's program D-I) or the eventual inclusion of both programs in Hockey East. Castleton State College was renamed Castleton University in July, 2015. During the fall of 2016 protest have occurred at St. Anselm over the women's program being forced from the conference by the new D-III only policy. This would likely force the program to move to the Northeast-10 conference which would essentially hurt the program by giving the school only six set opponents for the regular season. The program at St. Michael's would also likely be forced into the same situation as St. Anselm.
