The Undefeated and the Winless

[Gregory Sager]

It looks like hosting Emory and CWRU on Jan 16th and 18th will be the best chances of the season for the Maroons.

I'll guarantee that Chicago does much better than 2-12 in the UAA, Ralph.

I'm willing to wager you would have also guaranteed they'd be better than 0-11 in their non-conference schedule.

True, my guarantees aren't exactly bankable where the Maroons are concerned. But I've seen them play twice now, and they are honestly not a bad team. They have an abundance of talent, including a trio of highly-skilled veteran players in Matt Corning, Jake Pancratz, and Adam Machones. While I haven't seen any of the other seven UAA teams thus far this season, from the looks of the league's non-con performance it doesn't seem to me that the league is quite as good as it was last year. Thus, I feel that I'm safe ground in predicting Chicago to do better than 2-12, in spite of the fact that I (as well as everyone else) didn't see that 0-11 avalanche coming down the mountain.

Chicago will definitely do better than 2-12. I would put money on it.

Suffolk (a client) beat Maine - Ft. Kent on Jan. 3. So they're merely winless vs. D3.

Pabegg, I know I'm asking a lot, but is there any way to mark which teams on the list are still provisional schools?

Kinda interesting that NYU is undefeated, while Polytechnic -- which merged with NYU last year but retained its own intercollegiate athletic programs -- is winless.

1/6 Goucher 78, Marymount 64. First win vs. D3 for Goucher.

Yep, that would be the first game I would miss in my 14 seasons of PA for Goucher. DAMN! I would have loved to have seen that win!
