*NCAA Ranked Team
The East Region PairWiseSM Comparisons provide for our readers the raw data that the NCAA Division III Selection Committee uses to determine participants for the men's hockey tournament. A team is only compared against Division III teams within that team's region. Teams in the ECAC East, ECAC Northeast, ECAC West, NESCAC, and SUNYAC are compared against each other. Games against the six D-II programs in the ECAC East and Northeast, and any games against Division I opponents are excluded.
The PWC compares only those teams at or above .500.
You can see the complete list of all the individual comparisons.
The PWC can be reformatted and redistributed by any media outlet or person, provided USCHO's URL (http://www.uscho.com/) accompanies the results.
Note: The NCAA Division III men's ice hockey championship manual states that at-large teams shall be selected by winning percentage, opponents winning percentage, opponents opponents' winning percentage, head-to-head record, record against common opponents, and record against ranked teams, but not necessarily in that order. The NCAA championship manual does not specify any weighting for each of the criteria. Therefore, the selection committee may exercise the authority to weigh each of the criteria arbitrarily during any given season's selection process. The committee has chosen not to reveal publicly how it weights the criteria.
