Well if we are talking top teams in NE then we must consider Williams since they beat undefeated Amherst and just beat Tufts who you put in the top five. Although williams does have something negative going against them or should i say someone negative..I mean their coach gets out coached 90% of the time so they have lost games they shouldn't have.

Well, it seems that the Williams Women will have a very long season as they lost to WNEC!!!!! Correct me if I am wrong but WNEC was about .500 last year.

Ok...as good as Amherst is, it is not surprising they beat Southern Vermont by 50. It is after all Southern Vermont. Why not invite a team which will be more a bit more competitive to your tournament.

What is Harrington on the ten year plan at SVC? when does his eligibility run out. It seems he has been there forever!!!!

I understand they must start somewhere but they should start by hiring full-time coaches like they had in the past, not part-time. Part-time coaches have other job obligations and cannot dedicate all of their time recruiting and practicing. Not to mention SVC does not help in the recruiting area because they do not have the funds. Also, they can't even get practice times to have a full squad at practice because they do not allow the students to miss classes for practices and they will not adjust the class schedules to make a time slot for teams to practice. I had a friend go there and he told me what a mess it is and that is why their teams suffer. Yes, the new president and new AD did the right thing on getting into a conference but it won't matter until they get all full-time coaches who can put the effort in. If I remember correctly about three or four years ago, they had full-time coaches and their programs were actually coming around. Men's bball won the GNAC, Women's bball actually got some GNAC victories, Volleyball, Softball, Womens and Mens Soccer were actually competitive in some games. The only sport which didnt have any wins was Baseball. Atleast they were moving in the right direction. They may have been in the wrong conference for them but the coaches were dedicated. It was the school which was not dedicated to athletics. Without athletics SVC will fold.

lol THIS IS TOO FUNNY. SVC couldn't compete with the schools for the blind. Congrats to them on getting back in a conference though. Until they hire all full time coaches it does'nt matter what conference they are in. Again, they have an all new part-time coaching staff.  I believe they have 2 full-time coaches with rugby and yet again a new women's basketball coach who is also coaching soccer without any experience. If they paid more than 15 to 20 grand a year for a full time coach they may get some quality coaches, until them look for SVC to stay in the bottom half of that conference, with the exception of maybe Mens basketball. They are really making strides. I think they have students who are on the ten year plan too. Did Nick Harrington graduate yet? According to their rosters they have students there that should have been gone already. Are we sure they are eligible?

Yes Southern Vermont did get thrown out of their league thanks to their Athletic Director. As you can see other than men's basketball their programs are terrible. Doesn't matter who coaches up there...they will always be terrible because they do not have great administration or support. The women are still 0 and whatever!!!!!  Atleast they won a couple of games a few years ago. If they were in the conference then mens basketball would be competing this year. They already beat Norwich and Johnson and Wales..........
