Sports not in D-II

Men's and Women's Ice Hockey and Water Polo; Men's Volleyball; Women's Bowling and Gymnastics; and Co-ed Fencing, Rifle, and Skiing are not sponsored in Division II.

Some schools have opted to compete in a sport at a higher level and are allowed to do so by the NCAA under certain circumstances.

The Northeast-10 Men's Ice Hockey teams compete as a D-II conference. The Northeast-10 Women's Ice Hockey teams are members of the D-III Women's New England Hockey Conference in the regular season only. Because the NE-10 is the sole Division II hockey league, its postseason champion cannot compete for the NCAA national hockey championship. Post Ice Hockey teams also compete as D-II.
