Division 1 ACHA club hockey. They have D1 and D3 teams. It was a big commitment with fundraising and a lot of travel. Games scheduled from Arizona, Oklahoma and West Virginia. Also North Dakota.
As a freshman it was too much for him with late night practices and studying in an engineering program.

Pretty typical of these programs ....

travel and fundraising can eat up a lot of time. Some also charge for a wide variety of things, including captain's practices, tryouts, etc.
