Anyone familiar with tie breaker info. Imagine first condition would be head to head but not sure what follows.

In round robin conferences such as Sunyac the next tiebreaker after head to head is record vs common opponents starting with best record on down until tie is broken.

Thanks for the info. Will let the LL figure it out for me.

Here are the tiebreakers in the LL:

1.      Head-to-head results;
2.      Cumulative record against all teams with a better record than those
who are tied;
3.      Record vs. conference opponents in descending order;
4.      Best record in Liberty League road games;
5.      Winning percentage vs. common opponents in non-conference play;
6.      Winning percentage vs. all opponents with an end-of-season record of
.500 or above;
7.      Winning percentage vs. all opponents with an end-of-season record of
below .500, and
8.      Coin Flip.

Good stuff! Can definitely work with that. You deserve karma but I am still working on that.

I'll give him 1 for you and 1 for you too! In fact 1 for everybody on this page.

Guess my Knights and RPI are messing up my potential 8 and 8 to all scenario!!   I agree with the Karma dispensation and now that I am armed and dangerous I do believe the d3 cubed dude does deserve more + Karma!!!  Who knew this could be so fun in the middle of a disastrous season for my Clarkson team???

[d3d3d3]

Wow I got some positive karma. I'm honored.
So here's the deal. Clarkson, Bard and RPI are out. Vassar can still catch and even pass RIT, and the Brewers swept the Tigers this year so they own the tiebreaker. But if Bard beats Vassar and RIT beats Hobart Wednesday, it's over for Vassar. Hobart, like Bard, can get to 8-8 but would lose tiebreaker with RIT, so the Statesmen are out.

Thank you magicman....you shouldn't have! But I'll take it!!!

Vassar edged Bard last night. RIT lost to Hobart. If Vassar can beat last-place RPI on Sunday, they join Skidmore, Union and SLU in the LL Tournament.

[with age came?]

Well if you can't "join'em" (the playoffs) you might as well "beat'em" (the playoff teams)...Saints down ...Skidmore's next??  Go Knights!

[d3d3d3]

Vassar loses to last-place RPI ... then backs into the playoffs when RIT loses to Union an hour later.

Wednesday's semifinals: St. Lawrence at Union, Vassar at Skidmore.

[Bartman]

Good luck to LL tourney participants this year. Hobart had their "playoff like" win by coming back and beating Union this weekend. Oh to have one of those league losses back .... Oh well, young team , optimistic for next year.

Remember fondly when a certain situation happened like that to my Knights....When it comes to the playoffs everybody is at 0 and 0.
The history of 2008....oh the lovely memories!!!   Back then it was a 2 day mini-tournament at the home court of the highest seed...apparently not so anymore?
