MBB: Southern Collegiate Athletic Conference

[Ron Boerger]

Surprisingly, D3DataCast now has Trinity as one of the last four in.  I don't know what assumptions this makes about the rest of the season (other than not getting a pool A).

Edit:  Matt Synder (aka D3DataCast) says "It takes the Top 21 teams by average NPI across the 1,000 simulations (playing out the season and conference tournaments) who are not the most likely Pool A from their conference.

So really, this is a view before bid thieves enter the mix."

St. Thomas handled Trinity (again) last night thanks in no small part to a first half where they outscored the visitors 39-20.  The Tigers closed it down to seven three times in the second half, the last with 1:17 remaining but could not get any closer as all five Celt starters scored in double figures.  And in what almost certainly wasn't good news, Christian Green entered for the first time in several weeks four minutes into the opening stanza, only to depart less than two minutes later.  He did not return.
