Despite the loss, BV should stay where they are with Whitman losing and Whitworth's SOS really bad. I don't see Dubuque jumping above BV. BV fans have to hope Dubuque wins the Pool A.

I believe his greatest legacy comes not in how many football games he won or lost but in the fact that he was a committed follower of Jesus Christ.

Simpson Coach Zander steps down.
41-88 in 5 years.

http://www.simpsonathletics.com/sports/mbkb/2014-15/releases/20150302nb62x8

Simpson basketball the past few years to me seemed a lot like Cornell football in their last few years in the conference.  They were competitive almost every conference game.  The wins were just hard to come by.  The Storm seemed like a lot better team than what their win total indicated they were.  I wish Coach Zander the best.

Coe was under estimated and Loras was over estimated.  Luther and Wartburg? Yeah, I can see that I guess  ;)

Loras seems to be that team that gets put at the top of preseason polls out of habit/reputation.  Coach Gorton has been there 8 years.  He took over a team that had won the conference and tourney titles the year before.  In his 1st year at Loras they finished 2nd in the conference and then won the tourney.  But now they have had losing records in conference play 3 of the last 4 years.  it will be interesting to see the preseason polls next year.

If you consider the modern era of IIAC basketball as the year the tourney started...plus that is the 1st season Coe was a conference member.  The conference and tourney titles stand thus...

School - conference - tourney
BVU : 8 - 7
Central : 2 - 2
Coe : 2 - 0
Dubuque : 0 - 2
Loras : 1 - 2
Luther : 2 - 1
Simpson : 0 - 0
Wartburg : 3 - 1

Just finished up putting together PER metrics and published the top 100 players in the nation this year. I'll narrow this to include just the NCAA eligible players later this week.

It does seem that the figures skew slightly higher than I would have expected but that could be attributed to the larger variance between players in D3 vs the NBA.
