The dispute would be more suited to the major college sports landscape, except that Division III is home to many of the nation's top small colleges, and that brings an even bigger stake to the debate: the impact a split could have on academic rankings used by prospective students and their parents.
The result could be a new Division IV or a sub-division with a lesser designation. At many Division III institutions, athletics is a leading admissions recruiting tool that has been credited with raising retention rates. News and World Report rankings. Already, conferences are aligning themselves in various coalitions, although some prominent conferences involving athletic and academic elites, like Williams College in Massachusetts and Washington University in St. Louis, seem resistant to change.
Hundreds of colleges could face awkward decisions, choosing between athletic or academic peers. Then, what happens when someone you didn't want to come to the dance ends up dancing on your side of the gym? Finally, at the group's national convention last month, its leadership formally recognized a reformation movement by establishing two committees to recommend the models for a split.
The tent has been stretched far enough. A vote deciding how, or whether, to split the division would follow in January Which Division III institutions would go where is unresolved. But tentative concepts on reorganization were proposed at the convention. One division would require institutions to play a large number of sports, perhaps as many as 18, and would restrict athletic departments in the sensitive areas of recruiting, the lengths of playing seasons and number of off-season practices.
The other division would be more permissive in its recruiting, practice and competition rules, and require as few as 6 to 10 sports so that members could more easily focus on high-profile sports. Stevens Point has been particularly successful in a few sports, having won two of the past three Division III men's basketball championships. The Stevens Point women's basketball team won the national championship five years ago and made the Final Four two years after that.
The women's ice hockey team has been to the N. Final Four two out of the past three years. The baseball team was recently ranked fourth in the nation in a preseason poll, and the men's swim team also went to the N. Final Four last year.
The college is competitive but not dominant in what is by far Division III's most restrictive league, the New England Small College Athletic Conference, which, for instance, does not let its football teams play in the postseason.
Colby has abundant on-campus athletic facilities and one team national title, in women's crew in But it will not be as simple as segregating institutions with diverse athletic or institutional outlooks.
A look the current Division III men's basketball rankings reveals how messy breaking up might be. Stevens Point is ranked No. If the division splits along the lines expected, Amherst would probably go with its conference members to the traditional category and would forfeit playing against the most competitive, national-level basketball programs and the spotlight that goes with it.
Now multiply the angst of that choice by 30 sports and hundreds of institutions. Talk of reorganization has already caused public- and private-sector rifts, been likened to class warfare and stranded in the middle of the debate other institutions who wonder why change is necessary at all.
At many Division III colleges, including the top academic institutions, varsity athletes make up a third or more of the student body. Division III coaches, like their major-college brethren in Division I, spend countless hours recruiting athletes. Recruiting top students to a Division IV could be more difficult.
Liebowitz, the president of Middlebury College. But I know others feel differently. It would seem unlikely for Cortland State to join the more restrictive N. Bitterbaum, Cortland State's president. You have to be very careful how you treat athletics. We would never do anything to create the impression we're giving it less than our full support.
More than 20 people interviewed said at least institutions would join them. Lisa Melendy, the acting athletic director at Williams College, said that at last month's convention she was seated with several other athletic directors from her New England conference who are viewed as reform-minded traditionalists. It's a big group, but we can handle it. I like the diversity, instead of just playing the same New England or Eastern schools. The traditionalists say they were there first and should remain.
The nonreformers say they did not force the changes and that the traditionalists can go to Division IV if they are unhappy. Majority may rule. Some, like officials at Williams, a top-ranked academic institution with perhaps Division III's best athletic program, worry about the stigma of being associated with a Division IV. The name has such a substandard sound. It sounds like you've been demoted. When you've got students, how are you supposed to pay for the extra sports teams that are required?
Others have proposed using proper names for the divisions. And some administrators suggested there would be enough discord that the N. The outcome is too hard to predict. What do they do then?

Act of shooting does not get benefit of the doubt. Ball must be on its way! Note on Quick restarts: It will be incumbent on coaches and players to know that they may be at a disadvantage on free plays awarded to the opposing team. The Sportsmanship guideline will dictate that player or coaches who vehemently argue a legitimate quick restart by an official may be subject to conduct or unsportsmanlike conduct fouls.
The new definition of shot is only when the shot clock is on. The panel also approved a rule regarding shooting strings. Starting with the season, players will be allowed to have shooting strings up to but not touching four inches from the top of the crosse. See attached image for example. Two lines shall be drawn on either side of the center line 10 yards from the center line and extending past the scorer's table. The number of balls in each area must be equal in each area.
On the bench side, balls shall be placed at the scorer's table and outside each bench area. These balls shall be replenished by the home team and game management staff. No more than one sidewall string on each side is allowed. No crosse may have any tape affixed to the plastic. This does not include the crosse of a goalkeeper. This applies to both pre- and post-whistle violations that directly relate to the faceoff See A. On the third and subsequent violations, the in-home is the player that must serve the penalty.
Additionally, the requirement of the faceoff player to leave the field has been eliminated. Violations by the wing players before the faceoff will count toward the three per half. Only the faceoff players may be penalized for a postwhistle faceoff violation. Exception: When a team has three or more players in the penalty area, a player may come out of its defensive area to take the faceoff. On a faceoff, A2 uses his hand to grab the ball.
It is Team A's third violation of a half. Personal foul unsportsmanlike conduct on A2 and the in-home must also serve the team's technical foul, putting Team A two men down. Players may enter the field of play from the substitution area under the following conditions: a. The player must be properly equipped. He may not enter the substitution area until his substitution is imminent.
The player leaving the field of play must exit via the substitution area. The substitute must wait until such player is off the field of play, and the substitute may not delay his entry onto the field. During a regular substitution, or after a restart, A1 delays his entrance onto the field. The trailing official sees the delay. This does not remove the responsibility of a team to adhere to the offside rule. The substitute must always yield his position in the substitution area to any player exiting the field.
Substitution may take place while play is suspended. Note: Any delay of the game is to be enforced strictly. See Rule f for method of enforcement. When is a team member considered legally in the game? RULING: When the substituting team member has complied with substitution requirements as provided by rule and when he has entered the field of play. These situations include: a. End of a period. Scoring of a goal. Injury timeout. Equipment adjustment. Penalty enforcement. Man-up play. If an opposing player is within five yards of the player that has been awarded the ball, the official shall blow the whistle to start play.
