What team was that and where did those guys play in D1? I saw Drew University lost 9-0 to Christopher Newport last year. Four of those matches were 6-0, 6-0 or not close. Christopher Newport would not make more than a couple games in an entire dual match against William & Mary or another local D1 team...and WM is not even in the top 75. With all due respect, the level gap is just too big man. I have always said there are some very solid 4/5 star kids playing in D3, but in a team dual match against any decent caliber D1 team, it just ain't happening.
Obviously this isn't the norm, or d3 would be d1. But there are definitely d3 schools out there with some serious international recruits and kids who can play. My high school coach for instance played at a junior college in ohio somewhere and was recruitef from texas, and they could hang with some serious schools. Like the pro mentioned before fom Gustafson (?) they had won some obscene amount of titles etc. clearly this isn't the norm but there are small schools that bring some serious game.
