The 1966

1966 NCAA University Division Men's Ice Hockey Tournament. As runner-up, Cornell received the second bid to the tournament, however, due to a disagreement between the Ivy League and the NCAA on postseason participation the Big Red declined the invitation and were replaced by Boston University.[5]

Format

The tournament featured three rounds of play, all of which were single-elimination. The top eight teams, based on conference rankings, qualified to participate in the tournament. In the quarterfinals the first seed and eighth seed, the second seed and seventh seed, the third seed and sixth seed and the fourth seed and fifth seed played against one another. In the semifinals, the winner of the first and eighth matchup played the winner of the fourth and fifth matchup while the other two remaining teams played with the winners advancing to the championship game and the losers advancing to the third place game.
