   Think we earlier had Cortland hosting Fisher Wednesday. Tis Thursday. And Saturday's n-c twinbill at Susquehanna ppd. in favor of makeup dh at Fredonia

should be an interesting next 4 days with still so much at stake for the conference tourney. Cortland has locked up the #1 seed again, but after that there still are 6 teams battling it out for the last 3 spots. Should be pretty exciting to see what teams end up joining Cortland.

I agree... starts to day at noon with Oneonta at Plattsburgh.  Does anyone know of any links to audio or live stats for any of the games?  I believe that the Oswego at Brockport games on Sunday will be broadcast by the campus radio station... link will be on the athletic page.  Anyone know of any others we can follow let us all know?  Or will we just need to check here and wait for results?

It should be check and wait. As far as I know, no one in the league has live stats. A few schools post scores in between games of a doubleheader and only two have audio broadcasts - but WBSU doesn't cover much and Cortland's is sporadic since they do all the other sports.

Looking at the standings, it looks like a wide open weekend. I can't remember the last time Fredonia and New Paltz were right in the thick of it. It'll be a race to see who can avoid the four seed in the tournament, unless it's Brockport, then that's where they're the most dangerous

[Bob Maxwell]

No scores anywhere yet....  Both Fredoina and New Paltz were in the mix last year, but fell out of it before the last weekend.

If Plattsburgh sweeps, they are the second team to clinch a spot in the tournament and will be #2 seed.  If Oneonta sweeps, then there are 5 teams with reasonalbe shot at the three spots... and New Paltz would still be alive too.

will be a very interesting weekend...

Looks as though things are a little more clearer now that Oneonta has swept Plattsburgh today, but even so there still is a lot undecided. With today's results Cortland is locked up as the #1 seed and the only way Plattsburgh wouldn't make the tourney is if Oswego sweeps Brockport, Fredonia Sweeps Cortland and Splits with Oneonta, and Oneonta finishes with splits against SunyIt and Fredonia....I think Cardinal's fans you guys are safe

[Bob Maxwell]

Clearer?  It is as clear as MUD...   

It would have been much clearer if Plattsburgh had swept Oneonta as then they would be locked in as the #2 seed.  With Oneonta sweeping there are 5 teams that have real shots... all depending on who ends up tied with who... and if there are 2, 3 or more teams tied.

Does anyone know the tie breakers for more then 2 teams?

it is my understanding that the 2 way tie breakers are:
1) head to head games
2) then the results vs the other teams from the top down.

Can anyone confirm that?

Which if true would mean that if Plattsburgh and Brockport end up tied at 7-7 and Oneonta ends up as the #2 seed, Brockport wins the tie becasue of a split vs Oneonta , while Plattsburgh lost to them twice. And Oswego is out as they would have 8 losses.

AND Plattsburgh wins a tie if Fredonia is the determining team as Plattsburgh swept Fredonia and Brockport lost to them.  But for this to happen, Fredonia will need to win 3 of their four game this weekend.

Oswego wins a tie vs Fredonia, but loses one against Oneonta... and don't know about Brockport yet as they play on Sunday.  If Oswego wins one vs Brockport, Brockport is out and Oswego is involved in tie breakers...

I have no idea what happens if its a 3-way tie among any three of the five teams.

SO I don't see anything as clear... except Cortland is #1 and SUNIT and New Paltz are out of it with 8 losses to date...
