NCAA Division I Certification

NCAA rules game is central to D-I transition

UC Davis is moving up its entire competitive sports program to Division I, and the Aggies mean business.

Recent victories over a big-name program like Stanford — the Aggies stunned the Cardinal in football in September, and the Aggie men's basketball team upset Stanford last Sunday — and the same basketball team's recent road trip back east to face Dartmouth and Harvard are bringing increased attention to the athletics department.

All of this means, in turn, that athletics is paying closer, much closer, attention to the NCAA's Division I rules manual — all 507 pages of it.
