What a long separation.

You are correct. We are about 45 miles apart, and about 230 miles from the next D1 school in Albuquerque. Next closest are Arizona State (275), Arizona, and Texax Tech are just under 400 miles. For reference DC to Boston is a little over 400 miles. Alternatively, DC is within a range of 275 miles of both Bridgeport CT and Chapel Hill NC.

Now, imagine how many D1 schools are between just north of NYC and Chapel Hill, then add in how many more are as far west from DC as Pittsburg. If there are 2 more isolated D1 schools, I can't think of who they might be. Very nice to be in the same conference now.
