The NCAA Division III Championships Committee met via video conference on March 15. The following were named to sports and rules committees:
WBB: Denise Bierly, Eastern Connecticut FB: John Snell, Baldwin Wallace FHK: Chrissy Chappell, Connecticut College MVB: Mike Zapolski, Augustana; Sandy Augstein-Collins, Sage MGOLF: Tom Koehle, Penn State Altoona WLAX: Michael Schulist, Carroll WSOC: Susan Kolb, Hood; Adam Sprague, Mount Aloysius SFB: Cassie Runksmeier, Colby; Van Zanic, Geneva SWIM: Kate Roy, North Atlantic Conference; Andrew Brabson, Caltech WTEN: Justin Grube, Franklin & Marshall TRACK: Joel Williams, Tufts; Ayanna Tweedy, Rose-Hulman BOWL: Jeff Walsh, Medaille FEN: Bruce Gilliam, Vassar
The committee reviewed responses (both by institution and by conference office) to the membership survey distributed in February to help the Division III Advisory Council complete its charge of reviewing the division’s rules and policies to align with the new NCAA constitution. The committee focused on membership responses to championships-specific topics, particularly the ranking of budget priorities for the future. In general, committee members found that the membership’s priorities (and in many cases the ranking of priorities) reflect those the committee has been discussing in recent meetings.
The committee reviewed draft questions for sport committees regarding bench size, day of rest and selection criteria, topics on which the committee felt sport committee input would be helpful to inform recommendations going forward.

The 11th annual celebration of Division III Week, scheduled for April 4-10, is a great opportunity to call attention to the unique student-athlete experience enjoyed at our member schools.
Division III members are asked to highlight the activities and achievements of their student-athletes through scheduling an academic, athletics, co-curricular or extracurricular/community service activity. The Division III Week Communications Kit serves as a planning guide, and further information about Division III Week is available online.
