Men's D2

Great Lakes Down to This Weekend

The Great Lakes Men’s DII Conference has come down to this weekend, as Grand Valley State takes on Oakland University.

GVSU is normally the favored team in this conference, and in fact did very well last year, winning the Great Lakes, beating Northern Iowa in the first round of the playoffs, and losing to eventual national champs Minnesota-Duluth 24-3 - a very creditable scoreline.

Chasing the Champs - Winona, NDSU Track UMD

Is Minnesota-Duluth automatic to win the Northern Lights Conference? Maybe … but it depends who you ask.

A couple of teams in the mostly-Minnesota Men’s DII college conference are looking to chase down those Fighting Penguins, and if you ask UMD, as well, they might say things are a little different this year.

Duluth, Winona Lead in Northern Lights

We’re coming down to playoff time in the Northern Lights Men’s DII college conference in Minnesota, and Minnesota-Duluth and Winona State look to be the strongest teams.

New-Look Fall for Northern Lights

The Northern Lights Men’s DII season kicks off in about a month with a slight change in how the league is organized.

The defending national DII champs, Minnesota-Duluth, is of course back, with tough opposition Mankato, Bemidji State, and North Dakota State hoping to bring UMD back down to earth.
