Things are going exactly according to plan for Curry and Wheaton and WPI as the LEC tournament has been going right by the seed.  USM and Eastern play today in the winners bracket final and Keene awaits the loser. 


KSC------IS IT DOWN TO 3 TEAMS YET?   Ecsu, USM, KEENE ST?    Is everyone thinking if KSC pulls off the upset to win this tourney---both USM and ECSU would get at large bids, of course---and WPI, Wheaton and Curry would all be out??  Or, if Trinity wins their tourney---would that still leave one more at large bid for New England??   

moc 323,

Current LEC Tourney status:

UMass Boston eliminated this morning by KSC.

ECSU over KSC in yesterday's suspended game this morning, and over USM this afternoon

Tomorrow morning KSC vs USM in elimination game, winner needs to beat ECSU twice, once tomorrow afternoon, once Sunday noon to win auto bid to NCAA NE Regional

Ok, great--and thanks ECSU.....     ANY GUESSES as to whom may get at large from New Eng, if ECSU wins w/out a loss in this tourney---and if USM is 2nd?  

If Trinity also wins---would you expect 1, or 2 of the 3 teams in question to be invited?


ECSUalum

If Trinity wins NESCAC and ECSU win LEC, I predict  2 Pool C's:  USM and Curry. one of which goes to NY Regional.

If USM wins LEC, then ECSU gets pool C and USM ships out to Long Island as ECSU is hosting NE Regional.

Now we know all the AQ's, here's my guess on seeding:

ECSU
Trinity
Curry
Suffolk
WNEC
Babson
Westfield State
Husson

USM to NY as #1 seed

I can still see Trinity going to NY but right now I think they stay home and on campus.

Also I can see almost any permutation of Curry/Suffolk/WNEC. I picked it the order I did to not put the 2 TCCC teams against each other in the 1st round of regional. I'm sure it doesn't figure in committee's seeding, just my personal preference here.

that's my $.02

1-USM
2-ECSU
3-Suffolk
4-WPI
5-WNEC
6-Babson
7-Westfield State
8-Husson

Trinity to NY

Just a guess after all ;D

WOrd, you think USM is the 1 seed over ECSU still???  After losing two games at home in the tourney???  the BIG A.D. out of the regional for USM. You really do hate TEE don't you???

I hit send before I corrected my post. I changed my Curry seeding out and added WPI.

So I am playing both sides against the middle and will probably be wrong on both accounts; if the committee looks at the entire season, USM was the better team. If they just look at who is playing the best right now, it would be TEE. Same goes for WPI/Curry.

I figure they will look at TEE getting the home field advantage and in reality a 2 seed is no different than a 1 seed, unless Trinity is in the mix.

I guess you could say that about the entire tourney. If as no one is expecting, TEE, USM and Trinity all stay in NE then the seeding becomes more important as 2 & 3 would probably have to face-off leaving 1 & 4/5 for a go round. Of course none of this matters until the committe makes their selections.

What time do the selections come out. If it is tomorrow I'll schedule my meetings accordingly. If late tonight then NAPTIME fell-ars.

I thought they would all stay in NE but like you said no one else seems to think so.  This weekend was part of the season and we beat them 2 out of 3 this year.

Baseballfan posted in National Topics, (Pool A) thread, that last year NCAA Regional teams were posted 2 am Monday morning ::)

OK for all the retired d3 posters or insomniacs!

I, too, believe that ECSU played themselves into a #1 seed by beating USM at the LEC tourney and I think that USM should be lucky to get a #3 seed in the NE Regional is Trinity stays in NE. However, if Trinity does get shipped to NY then I don't think USM should go to NY. It would kind of reward them. After seeing USM this past weekend... they may not have enough pitching to get by in an eight team regional. After Therrian there was a big dropoff. They have tons of offense but Eastern showed that their lineup doesn't quit. Not many teams can have the leading HR in the conference batting in the 5 hole.

My picks for the NE regional would be:
1)  ECSU
2) USM
3) Suffolk
4) WNEC
5) Babson
6) Curry
7) Westfield State
8) Husson

DGilblair,

No I don't hate TEE (well, yes I do in fact) but not this year. See I picked them back in February to play Texas-Tyler for the title this year, so I'd rather be right than be ah hatin' :D It be an ego thang ;)  But seriously getting to meet all ya'll from TEE has made it harder to hate on TEE, but, give me time. Time heals all wounds they say.

Daytona 500 this PM; Varitek back with the Red Sox. We all knew he couldn't leave galpal Heidi Watney; and best or worst of all The Evil Empire opens there quest for another National Title, in 13 days!!! (In my book they, and Texas-Tyler are odds on favs.)

I seem to remember Husson losing to USM 4-1, very close for most of the game @ Husson.  Just an editorial comment

Gotta like a man that tells the truth......I kinda remember the Empire/Tyler prediction but not the Heidi Watney stuff which you would think I would with that girl being as gorgeous as she is.

From what I heard Husson has decent arms just not enough offense...

Paul Heering

I doubt it will happen this year or anytime soon (and I've said this before) but I wish the NCAA would do more mixing and matching with the New England, New York, & Mid Atlantic Regionals.

By my quick google maps calculations EVERY team projected to be in those 3 regionals are within 500 miles of ALL THREE sites.

Take the 24 teams you pick to go to those regionals, rank them 1-24 and put them in regions like this

One Regional is 1, 6, 7, 12, 13, 18, 19, & 24 seeds
Another is 2, 5, 8, 11, 14, 17, 20, & 23 seeds
Last is 3, 4, 9, 10, 15, 16, 21, & 22 seeds

it is supposed to be one large national tournament and not 8 regional tournaments, why not do this?

Husson may have some decent arms for their conference in which 13 of their 13 wins were at the hands of Farmington, Thomas, and Lyndon State but they wil not have seen anything like a lineup such as Eastern, Trinity or USM. I know that they played USM already but.........
