D3Hoops.com "mock Pool B and Pool C" selections are out, along with the D3Hoops.com "mock" bracket.

  The official NCAA selections will be announced on the Selection show Monday afternoon.

  http://www.d3blogs.com/d3hoops/2011/02/27/womens-tournament-bracketology

[Out_Of_My_Kitchen]

Any reason the women's selection show comes after the men's? I just thought since the women have hosting priority in the 1st/2nd round it would be the other way around. 

[ronk]

One would think so, especially if the women pass on a hosting school like Randolph-Macon who would be a men's hosting candidate, also.

[GuyFormerlyPSBBG]

Well I know there have been some minor problems with the women's brackets in the past.  Teams from the same conference playing each other in the first round.  If there were quite a few upsets in the conference tournaments.  There may be an issue with teams that originally put in to host, could no longer be in the tournament.  Title IX doesn't apply here either

I think on the women's side teams are generally cut and dry, so I am not sure why they would be 2nd to go.  It must be the ratings

 Final Pool C Selections Breakdown By Region 2010-2011

Atlantic:  Kean, Gallaudet, Richard Stockton (3 Pool C's selected)
Central:  UW-Whitewater, UW-La Crosse, Wash U (3 Pool C's selected)
East:  Rochester, Medaille (2 Pool C's selected)
Great Lakes: Hope, St. Vincent (2 Pool C's selected)
Mid-Atlantic: Johns Hopkins, Messiah (2 Pool C's selected)
Northeast:  Bowdoin, Colby, Williams, Eastern Connecticut (4 Pool C's selected)
South:  Greensboro, Louisiana College (2 Pool C's selected)
West:  Lewis & Clark, Simpson (2 Pool C's selected)

 Pool B pick was Chapman

[deiscanton]

I admit that, like a lot of you, I was surprised to see Richard Stockton get picked as a Pool C, but after looking at the SOS numbers of Richard Stockton vs the SOS numbers of Ithaca-- and, after noting which regionally ranked opponents Richard Stockton played, and the fact that Richard Stockton had a better mark vs RRO than Ithaca, the Richard Stockton pick makes sense to me.

In addition, it made sense that Richard Stockton would vault ahead of Mary Washington in the Atlantic rankings once the resumes of both schools were compared.  I just did not know at the time that the Atlantic Region rankings had a high probability of being changed.

In hindsight, had I known that the Atlantic regional rankings would have been changed, I would have put Richard Stockton's tourney resume up on Sunday night for people to consider.

[mytwocents]

Deiscanton,

I think you may have missed Messiah in the pool "C" listing.  Not really sure how all of this works or how many "C" bid s were available. I am pleasantly surprised Messiah made the tournament.   Your research and posts are amazing.  Thank You 

[deiscanton]

Deiscanton,

I think you may have missed Messiah in the pool "C" listing.  Not really sure how all of this works or how many "C" bid s were available. I am pleasantly surprised Messiah made the tournament.   Your research and posts are amazing.  Thank You  

I listed Messiah as Team No. 15 in my listings.   You probably missed it, mytwocents-- I know that the print gets small once I quote things and bring them up, but I did put Messiah down after they lost to Lebanon Valley.

Messiah was initially listed in larger print in  Reply #402  if you need to read the resume in bigger print.

There are 20 Pool C bids available this year.

Never mind, I noticed the mistake.   Muhlenberg was the Centennial AQ.  Corrected Reply #428

+1 to mytwocents for noticing the mistake.  

[deiscanton]

  Updated with final regional rankings and final SOS numbers-- Roanoke's tourney resume included

Bringing this forward for reference-- Conference tournaments completed as of Sunday Feb. 27-- 5:09 PM Eastern-- with corrections made on Gallaudet's result vs regionaly ranked opponent.

NOTE:  Correction made to Gallaudet's result vs regionaly ranked opponent made at 3:36 AM Monday, Feb. 27, 2011 to note a mistake that I earlier made as to which team the Gallaudet Bison played.

What I find funny is how RIC can be #2 in the Northeast (quite possibly the countries strongest region), yet up until 2 weeks ago didn't recieve a single vote for the top 25 poll.
