Congratulations to Montclair State University!!!!!  all we can do now is pray.......

I don't know if we will get in or not, but if we do watch out region because they are really running on all cylinders...We are the only team to beat Wesley at home in the past two years, and took down Springfield when they were 10th in the Country...we almost won the TCNJ game with 5 turnovers, ahhhh well congrats on a great season guess we will see in the morning

The win vs Springfield means nothing. Zero. Nada. Where they were ranked when you played them is completely irrelevant in the overall analysis.

Montclair stinks it up in the playoffs.  Even their own fans don't want to come out and watch it.
Thousands of fans join in the revelry, showing their Bomber pride and support for the football team. Some fans take the rowdiness a little too far, however, by starting fights, damaging property and tipping Port-a-Potties. -Ithacan, November 10th

I think that's about right.  If Utica had pulled it out over 'Wick it's probably a different story.

In with Pool A:

TCNJ
Curry
Widener
RPI
SJF (assuming Alfred doesn't come back and Utica beats Wick)
Wick (if they beat Utica, otherwise no Pool C for Wick at 7-3)

My guess is either Wesley or Salisbury gets moved into the East Region as either the #1 or 2 seed.

Pool C contenders left:
Hobart (8-2) - won 7 straight, 2 losses by only 7 total pts
Montclair (8-2) - win against Wesley in Wk 4, beaten bad by Cortland who just got smoked by IC.
Ithaca (8-2) - Not likely a Pool C entrant if Wick takes Pool A since SJF would likely go Pool C over IC based on head to head result.

My guess is the East will look like this (4-7 could be rearranged in several diff orders):

1.  Wesley
2.  TCNJ
3.  SJF
4.  RPI
5.  Wick
6.  Hobart
7.  Curry
8.  Widener

Wesley v. Widener (short trip from PA to DE)
TCNJ v. Curry
SJF v. Hobart
RPI v. Wick

TGP.  Since the NCAA already has Curry ranked at #2 (and they won today), dont you think they would have to still be #2 and have a home game?

They would have to, but IMO don't deserve a #2/

They're not going to move Wesley, a #1-seed that would cause constant travel issues in the East.  They will move Salisbury, who would be forced to travel and host at different points, and who would be just as good a fit in these circumstances.  Here is my best guess, posted to the LL and E8 (with Regional W-L):

1) St. John Fisher (9-1)
2) Curry (11-0)
3) RPI (8-1)
4) Salisbury (5-1)
5) Widener (8-2)
6) New Jersey (8-2)
7) Hartwick (8-2)
8 ) Hobart (8-2)

I hate placing Hobart as an 8-seed, but there are some first- and second-round travel implications that could be pretty ugly.  However, you can't drop TCNJ to #8 with their loss -- that would have made the second-round travel issues slightly easier to deal with after the Salisbury/Widener game.  This also avoids a potential second-round rematch between Hobart/RPI.  I think Fisher jumps Curry based on Fisher's quality win today and their Strength of Schedule being considered much higher than that of Curry.  There's one thing that's certain -- this is a tough bracket to seed based on the travel and rematch issues.

I love you Ithaca guys. ??? Hobart will probably get in, so an ECAC with Ithaca suites me fine. Come on down to the Train Station. The new turf is nice.
It ain't over till it's over, and when you get to the fork in the road, take it.

You're not in Ithaca's ECAC region...You won't play them there.
