Notes:

  • The 1998-99 season consisted of two single location "tournaments" that made up the regular season schedule. The second event also held the conference tournament.
  • The 2000-01 season had Alberta with more points but Regina had a higher point percentage in two fewer games as the conference had teams playing between 12 and 16 games.
