RFC Summer Semester--Most pivotal match-ups by Division/Conference/Region--NCAA Division II (Super Region 1)

Note: The "RFC Summer Semester" rolls on with a look at the key match-ups in Super Region 1 of NCAA Division II. Super Region 1 consists of programs in the Central Intercollegiate Athletic Association (CIAA), the Northeast 10 Conference, the Pennsylvania State Athletic Conference (PSAC), and the West Virginia Intercollegiate Athletic Conference (WVIAC).

CIAA: The race for the conference title was very intense in 2009. Don't expect things to change much in 2010, as this year's championship game will be played on November 13.

Northeast 10: Southern Connecticut State at Merrimack (November 6): Both the Owls and Warriors finished in a three-way tie with Bentley for the league title last year. But don't count out the Falcons, as they might have a say as to which wins it all, or in this case, part of it, this year.

PSAC (East): West Chester at Bloomsburg (October 23): The winner of this game could position themselves to at least reach the PSAC title on November 13.

PSAC (West): Indiana (Pa.) at California (Pa.)--(October 30): If any team has the best chance to dethrone the Vulcans, that squad just might be the Crimson Hawks of IUP. They struggled to a disappointing 5-6 finish last season.

WVIAC: Charleston at West Liberty (October 30): The Hilltoppers are at home against a Golden Eagles that hopes to make a run at a playoff berth after missing out in 2009 despite a 9-2 finish.
