History

The ECAC West Men's Tournament began in 1985, a year after the ECAC West split from ECAC 2 and followed the same format it had during the time in its predecessor. In the first 8 years the champion received an automatic bid to the NCAA Tournament. In 1992 an effort was made by some universities to restart the Division II Championship. Because Mercyhurst was one such team all SUNYAC members were forced to leave the conference and membership dropped to 7 schools. This necessitated a change to the conference tournament which was decreased from 8 to 4 participants. During the 90's the league would routinely send members to both the D-II and D-III national tournaments but all efforts at continuing the second-tier tournament ended after 1998.

The 4-member tournament continued unabated until 2007 when a single quarterfinal game was instituted. This arrangement held for six years before a second quarterfinal match was instituted and the 6-team tournament continued until the entire tournament was discontinued in 2017 due to the conference's dissolution.

gollark: It has dubious security things - I think it sends off the key somewhere for recovery or something - and isn't as fine-grained as fscrypt.
gollark: That's been repurposed as a server, and will probably just have important data encrypted individually, since Linux lets you do that in a sane way.
gollark: I'm talking about my laptop. My desktop boots slower because weird old ASRock UEFI.
gollark: Yep!
