Why an asterisk? Just curious!

Minnesota won the championship of the American women’s college hockey alliance (AWCHA) in 2000 which some people count (after that the NCAA formally began their D1 tournament which Minnesota Duluth won the inaugural 2001 tourney)

So Whisky and Minne have won a combined 13 of 22 total titles?? Nuts.

Minn Duluth has won 5 as well lol (including the first 3)… add in 3 for Clarkson, 1 for Ohio state and one canceled for Covid and you have only 5 teams that have won it lol

There’s not a lot of top programs in the world of women’s collegiate hockey lol

Yeah sometimes it seems kind of goofy with how few D1 womens teams there are. Otoh, I'm kind of familiar with girls youth/high school hockey in Michigan and there really aren't that many girls teams compared to the boys. Some girls are traveling pretty far to get to practices and games.

So is the issue with the talent pool or do schools like Michigan just not give a shit?

Oh and fun fact, girls high school hockey players have the highest chances of playing in college at a whopping 26%. https://www.ncaa.org/sports/2015/3/2/estimated-probability-of-competing-in-college-athletics.aspx

Well the Gusties beat the Mammoths in 3OT for the D3 title yesterday so there are more teams out there and not just D1

I’d imagine Michigan doesn’t sponsor women’s hockey since they’d probably have to give up one of their other womens sports due to Title IX restrictions

The WCHA conference tournament may as well be the national championship tournament.
