The College Hockey Championship Belt Part IV

Congrats to Massachusetts Lowell on winning the Belt. I have assumed that QU will be the only Connecticut team in the NCAA tournament and NU won't be there.

Belts don't transfer until the end of a multigame playoff series.

What are the parameters for the Eastern Belt? I'd think Western Michigan would be Western Belt eligible.

Thanks. It's any team in the three eastern leagues (including Air Force) and eastern independents (e.g., LIU).

I have decided after several years of thinking about it to stop being the compiler of the Belts. It's become more of a chore for me than fun.

If anyone else is interested in doing this, I will gladly send the history file to them.

I really enjoyed helping create the belts' histories, but I was never interested in maintaining them. Thanks for all the years you have done so.

If there's no passionate takers, I'd give it a go. Always been interested.

Thanks for all the work you have put into this project over the years! I assume this is a manual, time consuming project. I wonder if there is a way to automate some of it now, with a program or macro? (Not volunteering your or me for that, just thinking out loud)
