Key matchups this week

Saturday
#1 Hope @ Calvin


***Notable weirdness, Heidelberg loses and moves up 1 spot.

A little surprised that Wooster still got a first-place vote after losing to Witt even if that is a serious rivalry game. Also the fact that Capital is still just 2 points ahead of Witt. I think that really shows the long history of success and respect that Witt has built.

[ScotsFan]

Looks as though we finally have a Cap believer among us as they pick up a 1st place vote for the 1st time. 

How about the virtual tie between Witt, Heide and Wabash as well?  Only 2 points seperate 4th-6th!

[goscots]

I'm feel justified as I had OWU at 5th and Witt at 6th in my latest poll. Beyond 7th (Heidelberg) I am really having a tough time filling slots as nobody seems to be playing consistent enough to stay in.

Ohio Wesleyan wins at home against Wittenberg 70-67.

So #8 beats #5 in the first "key matchup" of the week.

9. PSU-Behrend 13-4.............won @ Lake Erie 58-42; lost @ Frostburg St 57-60

That AMCC race is nutty--eight teams within two games of the lead (i.e. between 7-3 and 5-5).  FSU is in 9th place, 4-13 overall, and they upend league-leading Behrend?!

Typo, its corrected now

I'll post it sometime after 9 or 10 o'clock and can edit if necessary.
