California program Transitioning to D-II faces unique challenges

Azusa Pacific is transitioning from NAIA to Division II. The Cougars had an excellent season in 2011 winning 9 games and are looking to build on that success this season. 

However, as the lone D-II program in southern California, APU has a unique challenge in scheduling opponents. In fact, we noticed that they will play 5 opponents two times each in the upcoming 2012 season. 

Here's hoping the scheduling gets easier for these guys as awareness grows.
