Re: Tournament Speculation Thread

Another play in for a #1 seed. terrible

But, you got the four teams in!

Re: Tournament Speculation Thread

You are probably right. Given the attention to travel you would think the MSOE/SNC with a Gustavas/STU match up would have made sense

So I'm thinking SNC would have preferrred MSOE in the first round. But I could be wrong.

Elmira gets another shot at Oswego

And if Oswego and Plattsburgh win, we get Game 4 to decide this year's SUNYAC rivalry which is all tied up at 1-1-1.

Re: Tournament Speculation Thread

No complaints.

I'm just confused as to why Plymouth State would host Wentworth? I figured it would be the other way around.

Did Wentworth put in an application to host a playoff game? Are their facilities NCAA worthy to host.

Hosting isn't automatic. We all remember the UMass-Dartmouth controversy.

Is it just seeding or avoiding a first round MIAC matchup?

If that rematch happens - it has to be the nightcap on 3/16. Shame they are on the same side of the bracket - can't quite call it "The Brawl For It All". Of course, on eof those purple teams could screw it up for everyone, too.

I'm sure it would be the late game if it were to happen.

I would think it is worthy for hosting and NCAA game - it is a D-1 facility (Matthews Arena). More likely they never put in the application, right?

Re: Tournament Speculation Thread

Let me be the first to say that Hobart got screwed

And Wentworth plays at Matthews Arena, it is very tournament worthy.

Probably the latter, as MSOE was never ranked (as far as we know...), and should be the 4W seed.

Is it too early to start packing for Placid? Russell, don't forget your sunscreen.
