Wow, who could have imagined the AMCC final four without Bradford and Behrend, a little changing of the guard I think in this conference... Definitely a lot more balance than in the past, but I'm sure those two will be right back in the running next season!
Predictions...... Hilbert will play a hard game against LEC, but I dont see them beating the storm on the road... although they are a very good and improved team, I would say its too much of a challenge... but look out next season, Hilbert could be one of the favorites...they are a very good team on the rise!
UPG will again defeat FSU in a close game... talent wise, UPG has just a little bit more, and I think Cooper will really step up in playoff time!
Finals - I want to go with UPG, mostly because of the way they manhandled LEC in their last meeting, but something tells me that winning at LEC where the storm is unbeaten will be a tough task... also, UPG has a less than stellar mark on the road (they were also unbeaten at home, all 9 losses on the road) ! So final prediction is LEC 85 UPG 80, very close game!
COY - definitely goes to Hilbert's coach...turned a non playoff team into a semi-finalist!
POY - Cooper , anyone who thinks there is a player anywhere near his caliber in this conference, has obviously not seen him play! He is head and shoulders above all other players... and this team lost last year's player of the year, Conlon, along with 3 other starters... and Cooper still leads them to the semi's and a 2nd place regular season finish!
Richardson, Bucynski, Race, Franklin, fill out the rest of the first team!
What a disappointing season for preseason player of the year, Harris, did he even average double digits???
