Carnegie Mellon informed the Division III Football Committeeon Friday that it waswithdrawing from theDivision III Football Championship. Since Carnegie Mellon withdrew more than 24 hours after Sunday's tournament selection show, a replacement team cannot be added to the bracket. Carnegie Mellon's first-round game against North Central (Illinois) scheduled for Saturday has been declared a no-contest. North Central advances to the second round and is scheduled to play Nov. 27 against the winner of the game between Albion and Wisconsin-La Crosse. The committee regrets that Carnegie Mellon's student-athletes and coaches will not be able to compete in the championship.
