NCAA Division II

Division II is an intermediate-level division of competition in the National Collegiate Athletic Association (NCAA). It offers an alternative to both the larger and better funded NCAA Division I and to the no athletic scholarship environment offered in Division III. Divisions II and III were formerly known collectively as the NCAA College Division.

Nationally, ESPN televises the championship game in football, CBS televises the men's basketball championship, and ESPN2 televises the women's basketball championship. CBS Sports Network broadcasts six football games on Thursdays during the regular season, and one men's basketball game per week on Saturdays during that sport's regular season.

Division II (windsurf board)

The 1988 Olympics, saw the introduction of Lechner Division II boards. The Division II class used a 6.5m sail and were round bottomed boards designed for upwind sailing in light to moderate winds.

Although they were difficult to sail downwind and a technical board to sail upwind, they are still the fastest 12 foot board upwind in up to 8 knots of breeze. The contest for the Olympic board had been between the Davidson (a Swedish design) and the Division II built in Austria. The final Olympic rig was available less than a year before the Olympics.

Like in 1984, the supplied equipment was rotated daily (except for the rigs).
