Find team ID for season

Description

NCAA datasets use a unique ID for each team and season. To access a team's data, we must know the volleyball team ID. This function looks up the team ID from wvb_teams or mvb_teams using the team name. Team names can be found in ncaa_teams or searched with find_team_name().

Arguments

team	Name of school. Must match name used by NCAA. Find exact team name with find_team_name().
year	Numeric vector of years for fall of desired seasons.
sport	Three letter abbreviation for NCAA sport (must be upper case; for example "WVB" for women's volleyball and "MVB" for men's volleyball).
