48 2005-06 Northern Michigan University Hockey Media Guide THIS IS THE CCHA

National prominence and national dominance are what separates the Central Collegiate Hockey As- sociation from the rest of college hockey. CCHA teams have won more NCAA Championships (7) in the last 19 years than any other conference. Bowling Green began the run in 1984, followed by Michigan State in 1986. The Lake Superior State Lakers, who own the most titles of a CCHA-member team, captured Tom Anastos three in a span of seven years (1988, 1992, 1994). Michigan’s pair as a CCHA member (1996, 1998) Commissioner brings its overall NCAA Championship total to nine, the most in the nation. Northern Michigan won the crown in 1991 as a member of the Western Collegiate Hockey Association. The league has featured five Hobey Baker Memorial Award winners – Bowling Green’s George McPhee in 1982, Michigan State’s Kip Miller in 1990, Bowling Green’s Brian Holzinger in 1995, Michigan’s Brendan Morrison in 1996 and Michigan State’s Ryan Miller in 2001. The CCHA began in 1971-72 with four teams – Bowling Green, Ohio State, and Ohio University from the Midwest Collegiate Hockey Association and an independent, St. Louis University. Lake Superior joined the league the following year. The league weathered the next two seasons after Ohio dropped its program and Ohio State became an independent. Fred Pletsch The CCHA began establishing its reputation as a haven for fledgling programs in 1975-76 Director of Communications when Western Michigan joined the league. Ohio State rejoined that year, and Northern Michigan’s arrival in 1977-78 brought the CCHA’s membership to six teams. After a season as a provisional member, Ferris State joined the league in 1979-80. St. Louis dropped its program the same year, leaving Bowling Green as the team with the longest tenure in the CCHA. Miami University joined the league in 1981-82 after spending 1980-81 as a provisional member. In 1981-82, the CCHA added four teams from the WCHA – Michigan, Michigan State, Michigan Tech and Notre Dame – raising its membership to eleven teams. The CCHA reached an all-time high of 12 teams in 1982-83 with the addition of the University of Illinois at Chicago. Brian Hart Director of Officials Notre Dame left the league in 1983-84, only to return 10 years later. Michigan Tech and Northern Michigan jumped to the WCHA in 1984-85, reducing the CCHA to nine teams where it would stay for eight seasons. In 1992-93, Kent State University joined the league and Alaska Fairbanks began its three-year run as an affiliate. Kent State discontinued its program after two seasons, while Illinois-Chicago did the same after the 1995- 96 season. Northern Michigan rejoined the conference in 1997-98 following 13 years as a member of the WCHA, bringing the CCHA membership to 11 teams. The 1999-00 campaign marked the addition of a 12th member – University of Nebraska- Omaha – and a new look for the CCHA. With the Mavericks joining the CCHA, the league expanded its postseason tournament and reduced its conference schedule to 28 games to Manon Rheaume Director of Sales/Marketing determine the regular-season champion. The teams are divided into three “clusters,” with THE CCHA OFFICE each team playing the other three members of its cluster four times — twice at home and twice Central Collegiate Hockey Association 23995 Freeway Park Drive, Suite 201 on the road. Each team hosts two teams and visits the other two from each of the other clusters. Farmington Hills, MI 49883 However, each team is scheduled to visit only one of the “extreme” schools (Alaska Fairbanks Phone: 248-888-0600 Fax: 248-888-0664 and Nebraska Omaha; Northern Michigan and Lake Superior; Ohio State and Miami) in the www.ccha.com other clusters in order to control travel costs. 2006 CCHA Tournament The CCHA Postseason Tournament structure will include all 12 teams. The top four finishers during the regular season will have a bye in the first round as finishers five through First Round (best of three series) March 3-5 eight will host nine through 12 in a best-of-three series. The winners of the four first-round

Second Round (best of three series) series will be re-seeded based on their regular season finish and will travel to the campus of March 10-12 the teams who finished one through four in the regular season to play a best of three series.

The No. 1 seed will play the No. 4 seed and CCHA Third Place and Championship Final (at Joe Louis Arena - Detroit) the No. 2 seed will play the No. 3 seed. The winners will then advance on to the CCHA March 18 Championship.
