List of NCAA Divisions II and III schools competing in NCAA Division I sports

The National Collegiate Athletic Association (NCAA) is divided into three divisions: Division I, Division II, and Division III. The main reason for Division II and Division III schools to compete in Division I is that certain sports have either only a single division or only Divisions I and III. As a result of this, there are some D-II and III conferences with a conference championship in a sport that has only one or two NCAA divisions (e.g. bowling, men's volleyball). Some schools, however,...
