Conference tournament time:

Day 1

[KSCfan]

USM goes down to RIC

If USM goes out early will that kill their pool C bid?  Last polls had them in top 25 around 22/23 i think.  I would imagine that is good enough to get them in, but if they and UMB both dont win the tournament could that leave them out looking in?  OR is the LEC strong enough to get 3 teams in as UMB and USM are nationally ranked and could get pool C bids if say Eastern or RIC win the tournament.

The only poll ranking that matters in the Regional rankings.

Day 2
I would imagine USM is fine for getting an at-large bid to the NCAAs.

[Ralph Turner]

In my review of Week #3 Regional rankings, I had UMB as the Pool A  from the LEC and USM as the first Pool C bid. If UMB gets knocked out then that pushes USM deeper into the stack.  With only 16 Pool C bids (no more than 2-3 for any region), USM needs to hope that UMB follows through.

USM completed its late season tailspin losing to RIC (in a game wrongfully started on Wednesday night) 7-3 and UMB 6-1 to fall to 27-13 on the season

Agreed, I think they have to get in if UMB wins the tournament but if someone else takes the title all bets are off...
