What Division III sport should we add a board for next?

[retagent]

I just logged on to the last page. Have there been any write in votes for DIII Hockey

[Ryan Scott (Hoops Fan)]

There was some discussion of hockey initially, but that was shut down pretty quick.  I'm not sure if there is another site that does a good job with that or if there just aren't enough teams to justify it, but I'm sure it's probably one of those.

[Pat Coleman]

We think USCHO does a good job in that niche and are willing to let them have it.

How about a DIII strongest Man/Woman's competition?

[Ryan Scott (Hoops Fan)]

The Elephant Man is right; that would be awesome.

[john merrick]

Think we could get Brent Musberger to announce it again with a little help from Lou Ferrigno?

One event could be who could lift the most Mount Union championship trophies. 

[Dsquared]

That would be right after who could lift the most College of New Jersey championship trophies (as they have 37 to Mount Union's 8 or 9).  Mount Union has only been dominant in football... there are plenty of other insititutions that have won from a variety of sports (Central women have 10 national titles in 5 different sports, I think).  If you want the breakdown, they have a pretty neat feature on NCAAsports.com where you can see how many national titles your college has won but each sport.  Until 2 years ago, my team (Wartburg) was as 1-dimensional as Mt. Union until they got the women's track championship under their belts!

That might be true, but the joke was funny.  Besides, you don't want to anger the Elephant Man; there's a lot of pent up aggression there.

Just saw this thread, figured I'd comment.

Since I'm from the SCAC, and am dating a volleyball player (a cute one too) and am good friends with the entire team, I have to say volleyball.

Oh yeah, that and the fact that the SCAC has FOUR TEAMS in the NCAA playoffs now. It came down to the last weekend, and there are a lot of good matches and players in this conference. Every year its fun to watch.

And have you ever talked to or hung out with volleyball parents and/orfans? They are almost crazier than football fans at a rivalry game.

[Ryan Scott (Hoops Fan)]

I think we may see a Volleyball board eventually, but now that the season is almost over it's probably a next year thing.

[HunterT]

Next year would be fine. But it would be great to see one. Would make a lot of people happy, and get a lot more involved here probably.

[Ryan Scott (Hoops Fan)]

The only thing was, didn't someone mention that there might be another board devoted to d3 volleyball on some other site?  Pat's not into competition outside the two big sports, so that could provide an issue.

[maxpower]

Haven't read much of the board, so forgive me if I'm repeating, but the two sports I am interested in (having covered them when I was in school) are volleyball and wrestling. I know that probably won't happen this year, but being an Ithaca alum, the wrestling team is perennially one of the best on the country, and volleyball is... well pretty good.

[PBR...]

dvc wrestling comes out of the gate strong in the nj invitational.....http://www.devalcol.edu/athletics/wrestling/results_cj%20open.htm
