There is an all AAU Final Four tomorrow!! And I haven't really heard anything about the matchup  

I'm sure you meant UAA - and I'm with you - let's talk about NYU/Wash U.

There seems little to choose from between the two teams on paper.  The win at NYU was more lopsided than the win at Wash U.  Both teams shoot about the same %-age from the floor, both shoot about the same from 3-point land.  NYU has an advantage - 75% to 62% from the free-throw line, and I suspect that could be an important key to victory.

I saw both teams play Brandeis at Brandeis - both trailed at halftime, both came back late, both won by six.  Again, how to choose . . . ?

I'd give Fahey and staff an edge over Quinn and staff, and NYU is coming off four home victories whereas Wash U has won on the road.

Whoever wins, let's hope they have enough left to show the rest of the D3 world what the UAA is made of by winning the finals!

My prediction: Wash U by 4, based on the adversity Wash U has overcome all season and Fahey's coaching.

Small bit in the Portland paper today reported that Coffin would be rejoining the team "for the 2nd half of the season."  If that's accurate, it would raise some interesting challenges for Murphy and the team.
