    Jamestown recently started a team. Minot State has one, so does UM-Crookston and SDSU. Heck, just about every major university/colleges in the United States, especial those that don't field a NCAA team, has a AHCA team. It's just that nobody outside the few within of the super, die-hard hockey fanbase really cares.

    The only time this should be story is when one of the AHCA teams joins the NCAA, much like Penn State and Arizona State have done recently.

    If you want to piss off die-hard college hockey fans, just remind them that the "highest" level is actually the AHL.

    That sure is a lot of bullshit to announce a club hockey team.

    When you play football, you gotta like the taste of blood, And 50 percent of the time, it's your blood.

    It is characteristic of the unlearned that they are forever proposing something which is old, and because it has recently come to their own attention, supposing it to be new.

    A DI ACHA team is about a notch lower than a DIII NCAA team. Little to no school funding and no athletic scholarships. However, the number of ACHA teams to compete against is far greater than the NCAA can offer.
