Why is FSU not playing in this year’s Publix Savannah Hockey Classic?

Florida State is now a Division 3 team. The decision was made to replace FSU due to competitive balance since Georgia (now D1), Florida (D2) and Georgia Tech (D2) are playing at a higher division of hockey. Tennessee (D2 team) was selected to replace them as they were one of the original teams in the tournament.
