DAYTONA BEACH, Fla. (AP) - The Embry-Riddle Eagles have successfully moved from NAIA to NCAA Division II athletics.
The Daytona Beach school announced Monday that it has officially become a NCAA Division II full member. The school had undergone a three-year process to move up into the NCAA ranks, spending the last two years as a provisional Division II member.
