Maybe petition to bring RMAC up for one sport with both men and women's LAX? It could help. You have teams in Utah, Colorado, Oklahoma, and Missouri. I think they did have a team from one of the Dakota schools at one time.

Man's:
Colorado Mesa
Rockhurst (kansas City Missouri)
Westminster Utah (Salt Lake City)
Adams State
CSU-Pueblo
Maryville

Women's:
Lindenwood
Regis
Colorado Mesa
Fort Lewis

Rockhurst

Adams State
Colorado-Colorado Springs

It might give air force and Denver some close by competition until some more schools out on the west coast starts it.

Stop the D2 hijacking. This is a copy of your post from another thread. The NCAA is not going to bend its rules to add 4 small D2 schools to D1 (Maryville has already left the RMAC, Rockhurst men leaves after the 2018 season; both to the new GLVC lacrosse).

D1 do allow D2 conferences up at D1 for a sport. Conference Carolinas is a D2 conference with 1 sport as a D1. As it is, they do make exceptions to the rules.

That has been eliminated. Sports that aren't offered championshipss at DII level, like ice hockey and men's volleyball, are exempt. Some sports like skiing have an NCAA championship without a specific level. Teams that moved up to DI for a specific sport like Dallas Baptist are allowed to continue.
