The National Collegiate Athletic Association (NCAA) has announced its defense team in response to a class action lawsuit filed by several hockey players. The plaintiffs allege that the NCAA’s conduct has resulted in significant damages, including forcing players to sell their labor at below-competitive prices, losing out on athletic scholarships, and being excluded from Division I play. These injuries, according to the amended complaint, align with the types of harm antitrust laws aim to prevent.
