Great Lakes Region

[KnightSlappy]

my guess for tomorrow (RRO based on last week's ranks):

RG   ##   WP      bSOS    bRPI    NAT   Pool   D3      RRO   CONFER   TEAM
--   01   0.905   0.555   0.642   005   A      19-2    5-1   NCAC     Wooster
+4   02   0.762   0.563   0.612   018   A      16-5    2-4   MIAA     Hope
-1   03   0.783   0.533   0.596   033   C      18-5    2-3   NCAC     Ohio Wesleyan
+3   04   0.818   0.503   0.582   048   A      18-4    1-0   PrAC     Bethany
-2   05   0.826   0.496   0.579   053   A      19-4    1-1   OAC      Mount Union
-2   06   0.773   0.530   0.591   038   C      17-5    0-3   OAC      Marietta
-2   07   0.739   0.524   0.577   058   C      17-6    2-3   NCAC     Wittenberg

on the outside, could be ranked in the future:

--   --   0.682   0.535   0.572   067   C      15-7    3-4   NCAC     DePauw
--   --   0.842   0.462   0.557   087   C      16-3    1-1   PrAC     St. Vincent
--   --   0.789   0.465   0.546   104   C      15-4    1-4   MIAA     Calvin
--   --   0.826   0.456   0.549   100   A      19-4    1-0   AMCC     Penn State-Behrend
--   --   0.810   0.433   0.527   150   C      17-4    0-0   AMCC     Hilbert

Rankings are up:

1. Wooster
2. Hope
3. Ohio Wesleyan
4. Bethany
5. Mount Union
6. Marietta
7. Wittenberg

Are they using Knightslappy's table?

"Ranked" games tonight

Wooster at Allegheny
Hope at Kalamazoo
Ohio Wesleyan at Oberlin
Thomas More at Bethany
Mt. Union at Marietta
Kenyon at Wittenberg

Obviously the Mt. Union/Marietta game has the biggest impact on both the OAC title race and regional rankings.  MtU wins the OAC if they win tonight.

[Fifth and Putnam]

Halftime

Marietta 43
Mount Union  40

[kiltedbryan]

Final from Marietta

Mount Union 81
Marietta 77

[David Collinge]

NCAC is going according to Hoyle tonight. Wooster, Wittenberg, and DePauw have already won, and OWU is miles ahead in their game.

Bethany 80 Thomas More 77

Waynesburg 68  St. Vincent 62

Shocker!  With that loss Bethany is now in first place in the PAC.  Still need to win Saturday to grab the #1 seed.

Waynesburg 68  St. Vincent 62

Shocker!  With that loss Bethany is now in first place in the PAC.  Still need to win Saturday to grab the #1 seed.

One just have to love those Calvin players that go on to coach at the college level.

Quite a day in the GL Region

Wilmington beat Mount Union 84-77
DePauw beat Ohio Wesleyan 64-63
Thomas More beat St. Vincent 90-80

I'm thinking the rankings next week will be:

1. Wooster
2. Hope
3. Bethany
4a. Ohio Wesleyan
4b. Mount Union
6. Marietta
7. DePauw

3-7 look to be stacked up pretty tight.

I wonder if these losses give Hope a little cushion where a loss next week at worst drops them behind Bethany making them basically the first Great Lakes team at the Pool C table.

I think Hope and Wooster are sitting well for Pool C. Everyone else is going to want to win their tournament.

Geneva 61 Bethany 59


Stunning loss for the Bison to the #9 seed in PAC.  This is the kind of loss that keeps you home.  Big winners here are the NCAC/OAC Pool C candidates.
