Re: St. Norbert 2013-14 - a new mountain to climb on the way back to the top
Before the 2013-14 season, a rule was put in place not allowing for any exhibitions or games to be played by D-III schools before Nov. 1. (Stout got around this by having a contract and proving their game was already scheduled for a date prior to Nov. 1 before the rule was put in place.)
For the 2014-15 season, the committee amended the rule stating you could play scrimmages or exhibitions before Nov. 1.
This year, because the Nov. 1 falls on Saturday, games on Friday, Oct. 31 are permitted.
For some reason I am under the impression that the NCAA didn't allow Norwich to continue playing Dartmouth before 11-1 as they did in the past. Maybe the Norwich game was an exhibition and not a scrimmage and that made a difference. A lot of D3 fans and maybe some Dartmouth fans looked forward to the D1/D3 competition. The game also brought a good crowd to Thompson Arena in Hanover.
I am looking forward to watching the scrimmage if the colleges stream it.
