They still moved UWW and Whitworth out, which they could have done last year with UWW and UPS but failed to.

Good point.  Thumbs up to the selection committee.

For those that followed my numbers all year:

Standard RPI (25% winning percentage and 75% SOS) picked 16 out of 19 Pool C teams.
It had Messiah, Colby, and UW-LaCrosse as in, and Anderson, Wheaton, and Wesley as out.

RPI50 (50-50 WP to SOS ratio) also picked 16 of 19 teams.
It had Messiah, Colby, and Calvin as in, and the same three above as out.

It seems like those last three were the big problem to pick.  Obviously they relied on secondary criteria, which makes it a little more subjective.

If someone has the time, we should update this with the final regional/overall records.  These records are through last Tuesday, right?  If updated, it will be a valuable thing to look back on next year as we try to sort out Pool C.

Good work, Tom.

Also head to head and common oponents (in-region) is unlikely across regions, so there's two more primary criteria out the window. Maybe that's why RPI does a better job picking Pool C than it does ranking the regions? The WP and SOS are the two HUGE factors in Pool C selection.

ziggy and I spent several hours doing selections, and we were only able to do one better than RPI, same for the d3hoops.com projection too.

The records listed were from the last regional rankings, which go through that previous SUNDAY.  I was too lazy to update the records!

The NCAA site says the rankings on the 24th were the "last of the season."  I don't think we're getting the rankings they used to pick the tournament.

Per the Handbook, a final ranking was supposed to come out yesterday (page 17)...

I was expecting one also, but in last week's poll it says "final poll" more than once.  I wonder if they had a change of heart.

That's how it was always done in the past, but this year. Sunday Feb, 28 also appeared on the list of days, leading many to believe they would release the rankings... as it says they would.

I made the call. Via email, but I made it. We'll see.
