    I believe NCAA D1 women (and most women's sports in general) are exempt from the transfer rules that men must follow.
    CCT '77 & '78
    4 kids
    5 grandsons (BCA 7/09, CJA 5/14, JDL 8/14, JFL 6/16, PJL 7/18)
    1 granddaughter (EML 4/18)

      Interesting. Makes a person wonder why there isn't more transferring on the women's side of things. Kepler had to sit a year when she transferred to UW from OSU, but I think that might just be a b10 thing.

        It's a WCHA thing, and the other conferences have similar rules. If you transfer to a school within the same conference as where you've been, you have to sit out a year. It's why Nicole Schammel had to sit out for a year while Caitlyn Reilly was able to play right away after transferring to Minnesota.

          Within the WCHA a transferring student athlete does have to sit out one year, but which other conference mandates the same?

            Teams could actually "trade" players then too out of conference. TT3, what do you want for Watt?

                If Watts played in the WCHA, she would have half the points. Excellent player however Zumwinkle and Maltais are as skilled, were 1-2 in scoring I believe with half the points.

                  I tried to quantify that Hockey Easy in general doesn't play much D or as much as the WCHA, but was impossible to make the math come out to show that.

                    Come on....you need a goalie and UW has 5....you can't deny that UW's staff has a way better eye for goalie talent than most, and probably better coaching as well.

                      So much so that Wisconsin could put a cardboard cutout out there in goal and still have a .900 save % and a less than 2 gaa.

                        This is some premium mid-west elitism...

                            More than that until the good part. Here is the schedule from a BC perspective as I see it:
                            April-August - players train and improve;
                            September - school begins; players back on ice; others learn a lot from returning Olympians;
                            October - BC crushes a young UMD team and several HEA foes by using the strategy of never letting them possess the puck;
                            November - Grant tries to contain his giddiness while watching the Eagles blow out everyone in sight;
                            December - Grant puts together mid-season highlight videos, researches scoring records that will be broken, and attempts to devise a new ranking system that fully captures BC's brilliance;
                            January - Grant no longer attempts to contain his giddiness and spends most of his days giggling in anticipation;
                            February - Everyone (not just Grant) has decided that BC earning the title is just a formality;
                            early March - Grant covets an NCAA quarterfinal matchup versus RIT;
                            the Frozen Four - for the first time all season, the Eagles discover that the puck is somewhere other than on their sticks or in the opponent's net (what happens next is really the only part of the story that we don't already know).
