Hey Pat, are you going to create a separate thread for conference tournaments this year like you did last year, or should we post all results on this thread??

Pat Coleman

Yes -- I've separated this out into a new thread. Thanks for asking!

What would we Michiganders know about driving on freshly paved roads? ::)

In the LEC:
An Eastern Connecticut win over UMass-Dartmouth tomorrow afternoon would give Eastern Connecticut the regular season championship and the #1 seed in the upcoming LEC tournament which starts with quarterfinal round play on Tuesday, February 24.

After Saturday's action in the LEC:
Eastern Connecticut beats UMass-Dartmouth 74-65 to officially clinch the #1 seed in the LEC tournament.
Boston beats Plymouth and will likely end up as the 6th seed.  Can still finish as the 5 seed but they need to win twice and have Western Connecticut lose twice for that to happen.  Likewise, Boston can still end up 7th, but they need to lose twice and have Southern Maine win twice.  Boston can still tie Plymouth at 4-10, but since Boston swept the season-series 2-0, it's become impossible for Plymouth to finish higher than Boston.
Keene state put a second half beatdown on Western Connecticut to run away with an 18 point win (after trailing by 4 at halftime).  Keene goes 1 up on Western for the 4th spot, the final home game in the quarterfinal, but Keene finished the season-sweep of Western Connecticut, so Keene is theoretically 2 games up with 2 games to play, so it's looking likely we have the 4 teams that will have home games in the LEC quarterfinals all wrapped up (Eastern has locked up 1, Dartmouth, RIC and Keene are likely the other 3).

The LEC tournament is officially set:

#5 Western Connecticut (14-11, 6-8) (99)
@ 2/24 7:30 PM
#4 Keene State (17-8, 8-6) (101).  Keene swept the season series 2-0 winning both by at least 13 points.

#8 Southern Maine (5-20, 2-12) (39)
@ 2/24 7:30 PM
#1 Eastern Connecticut (21-4, 13-1) (80). Eastern swept the season series; won by 29 @ USM, but only by 14 at home.

#6 UMass-Boston (14-11, 6-8) (82)
@ 2/24 7:30 PM
#3 UMass-Dartmouth (13-12, 9-5) (98).  Season series was tied at 1-1 with each winning at home.

#7 Plymouth State (7-18, 2-12) (62)
@ 2/24 7 PM
#2 RI College (18-7, 10-4) (66).  RI College swept the season series 2-0 and haven't lost to Plymouth in 5 years.

Semifinals and finals @ Eastern:
#4 Keene State (18-8, 8-6) (81)
@ 2/27 5:00 PM
#1 Eastern Connecticut (22-4, 13-1) (63).  Eastern was 2-0 winning by 24 in Keene, but only by 6 at home in a game they trailed most of the way.

#3 UMass-Dartmouth (14-12, 9-5) (63)
vs. 2/27 7:30 PM
#2 RI College (19-7, 10-4) (75).  Series was tied 1-1 with each team winning at home.  Dartmouth won by 10, RIC won by 11, but RIC was up by 32 with 11:30 to play in the second that game before they fell asleep at the wheel and made the score appear closer then it was.

#4 Keene State (19-8, 8-6)
vs. 2/28 2 PM
#2 RI College (20-7, 10-4).  RIC swept season series 2-0 have won 8 straight in the series and 14 of 15 overall.


UMass-Boston was 0-2 against RI College while Western Connecticut was 1-1 that's how Western ended up as the 5th seed: Plymouth was 1-1 against Eastern Connecticut while USM went 0-2 that's how USM ended up 8th.   Dartmouth, Keene & Eastern all have home quarterfinal games with the women's team and in LEC play women play at 5:30, men play at 7:30, RI College is the lone men's team that has the single game at home so that will begin at 7.  Semifinals and finals will be Friday, February 27-28 at the site of the highest remaining seed after the quarterfinals.  Eastern Connecticut women are also the 1 seed in the women's tournament and even if both win on Tuesday I believe the women will play first on Friday at 1 & 3 and the men will play at 5:30 & 7:30 regardless of where the semifinals are taking place.

Ohio Wesleyan has clinched the top seed in the NCAC tournament. The Bishops have a two-game lead on Wooster with two to play, and having swept the Scots, own the tiebreaker. OWU will be the first #1 seed not named Wooster or Wittenberg in at least 22 years, when Wittenberg and Allegheny were co-champions.

Mr. Ypsi

The CCIW tourney will be in Rock Island.  Augie (#1) will meet the winner of NPU @ NCC (#4).  Elmhurst is at IWU to determine #2, but they are assured of meeting in the other semi whoever wins this week.

Definitely a key game to see who the "home team" will be in Rock Island. If Elmhurst loses, it will be tough for them to win as the away team against IWU, especially two games in a row. As we know, home teams generally have the advantage!  ??? ;D

The NESCAC tournament is set:

#8 Colby (13-11, 4-6) (63)
@ 2/21 3
#1 Trinity (CT) (19-5, 9-1) (66)

#7 Williams (15-9, 5-5) (74)
@ 2/21 2 PM
#2 Bowdoin (17-7, 7-3) (87)

#6 Wesleyan (16-8, 5-5) (66)
@ 2/21 3
#3 Bates (19-5, 7-3) (59)

#5 Amherst (18-6, 6-4) (92)
@ 2/21 2
#4 Tufts (13-11, 6-4) (66)

All conference games are over, but Bates & Bowdoin have a game on Monday, while Williams has a game on Tuesday.

Semifinals and finals are 2/28-3/1 at the highest remaining seed after quarterfinal play.  I don't think the #8 seed has ever beaten the #1 seed on the men's side in the NESCAC tournament.

Semifinals & finals taking place @ Trinity:

#2 Bowdoin (18-7, 7-3)
vs. 2/28 4 PM
#5 Amherst (19-6, 6-4)

#6 Wesleyan (17-8, 5-5)
@ 2/28 2 PM
#1 Trinity (CT) (20-5, 9-1)

With the way this year is going I wouldn't be surprised if the NCAC featured an 8 vs. 7 final just because...

#14
WIAC field is set, just not the seeds.

Whitewater 14-1
Stevens Point 14-1

Both have 1st round byes. Whitewater plays at winless Stout and Stevens Point plays at Superior. If they both win, it's a coin flip. If they both lose, Whitewater gets the #1 seed as they would be 2-0 vs Superior, finished higher than Stout.

Platttville 9-6
River Falls 9-6

Ironically,  both play each other at River Falls (River Falls won the 1st meeting)

Oshkosh 7-8
Eau Claire 6-9

Eau Claire plays at Oshkosh with Oshkosh already beating them on the road.
