It's almost time. Tomorrow, July 1, begins a new school athletic season. While there haven't been a lot of changes in the big conferences, at least not outside the Big East, there have been a lot of changes within many of the smaller conferences. Hopefully this guide can help you know where to find your favorite D1 team during the 2013-14 season. Please note that this list doesn't include men's volleyball or the D2 baseball teams that compete at the D1 level.
