@arbitrary99, my point had to do with comments by some that track coaches have less pull with admissions. If in general the NESCACs give 2 slots and 3 tips (more or less, about right) for non-football teams, that will have one effect on women’s softball and yet another effect for track and field. By way of example, Williams softball has a roster of about 16, while its Track and Field roster is about 50. This harmonizes the comments (repeated here on a couple of occasions) that the Bowdoin track coach has no admissions pull with your thought that track coaches get the same number of slots and tips as the other teams.
