Have a question for anyone who knows the rules of eligibility.
I started undergrad in the fall of 2005. I ran for a division I school until the end of indoor track(during my 6th semester) when I stopped running for the team. I went on to finish my undergrad totally 5 years.
I am now thinking about going back to school, and was wondering if I would have eligibility at the Division II level? I realize Division I is out of the question because my '5 year clock' expired, but what is the rule for Division II? I know it is about '10 semesters,' but I have heard different things about the ruling. I have heard that once you have completed 10 semesters of school, you are not eligible anymore, but I have also heard that you have 10 semesters to compete (with a redshirt year built in). Which one of those is true?
If I am still eligible to run DII, how many seasons would I have left? I redshirted my freshman year entirely, I ran xc and indoor the next year and got injured my redshirt freshman year in track (and also was still injured through xc the following fall).
Thanks for all of your help.
