Bemidji State makes a presentation for admission to the WCHA

From USCHO.com:

Officials from Bemidji State have made their argument for admission to the WCHA. Now, they wait.

The contingent from the group that hopes to be the 11th member of the WCHA made a presentation to the league and its member schools Monday at meetings in Marco Island, Fla.

The WCHA will discuss matters Tuesday, but it is not guaranteed to vote on admission. If it does vote, eight of the 10 schools would have to vote yes to admit Bemidji State.

Looks like the Beavers are ready to join the big boys in the WCHA. This would leave the College Hockey of America division with just 3 teams (Alabama-Hunstville Chargers, Niagra Purple Eagles and Robert Morris Colonials). I’m not sure this division, which was formed in 1999, can survive with just 3 teams.
