Final from the Palestra in Rochester, NY--

Emory 86, Rochester 76

Emory finishes the regular season at 8-6 in the UAA, 17-8 overall-- third place in the UAA.

Rochester finishes the regular season at 6-8 in the UAA, 16-9 overall-- sixth place in the UAA, but with a resume that is arguably better than the UW-Oshkosh 2016-17 resume (17-10, .630 winning percentage) or the UW-La Crosse 2018-19 resume (17-9, .654 winning percentage) because of Univ. of Rochester's 5-0 vs non-UAA RROs UT-Dallas, Nazareth, Ithaca, Middlebury, and Wooster.  Arguably, most of these RROs will be among the top 50 or top 100 resumes in DIII going into the discussion.  (Sam Atkinson in 2018-19, who was national chair of the DIII Men's Basketball Committee at the time, ranked the RROs nationally by means of the NCAA Scoring Tool for purposes of diving into the results v RROs.)

The .640 winning percentage matches UW-Oshkosh 2016-17's resume through 25 games. 

Whether or not Rochester becomes the first non-WIAC team with a win/loss percentage under .667 to get a Pool C bid this year remains to be seen, but Rochester should make the national table for discussion due to their entering the weekend at #2 in Region 3.

There were 49 fouls called in the game (resulting in 66 FT attempts), including 5 fouls within the first 90 seconds of the game (all by the same official). In total, Emory had 7 players with 3+ fouls (one fouled out and 2 had 4 a piece). For Rochester, 5 players had 3+ (2 had 4 a piece). Refs definitely impacted the game and made it a FT contest for the last 12 mins. Would have been fun to let them play a little more as both teams definitely tested their bench depth.

Very entertaining, hard fought game. Gutty performances across the board. Both teams are tournament caliber teams. We'll see what Monday brings.

I believe that Washington University is the only team with a pre-season exhibition.  They play Mizzou on November 3rd rather than November 2nd as originally posted.  Mizzou has a new coach an almost entirely new roster of grad transfers so hard to forecast how the Bears will do.

Emory has a pre-season exhibition vs D2 Augusta on 11/5 (went 33-4 and played in the D2 NC game last year). Augusta is #3 in the D2 pre-season power rankings released this week.
