Fails WP:GNG and WP:NSEASONS. WPI played in Division III -- the lowest level recognized by the NCAA. Even at the Division III level, the 2016 WPI team was not exceptional -- not ranked and not among the teams participating in the Division III playoffs.

Redirect to WPI Engineers football: Usual outcome of a DIII season is deletion, and further DIII seasons all could be likely uncontroversially redirected as alternatives to deletion and valid search terms. Etzedek24 ^{(I'll talk at ya) (Check my track record)} 20:19, 8 February 2021 (UTC)[reply]
