I believe Brooklyn was the first ticket punched to the dance.  Lehman and Staten Island were both in the RR's last week I believe, but I think Brooklyn is the only CUNY team going dancing.

So, we have our first conference tournament set for the 2016 season: Pat, feel free to start a new topic for this year if you want!

NESCAC (first round @ higher seeds 2/20; semifinals and finals at the highest seed remaining after the quarterfinals 2/27-2/28):

#8 Colby (16-8, 4-6) (60)
@ 2/20 3 PM
#1 Trinity (CT) (18-6, 9-1) (71)

#6 Williams (15-9, 5-5) (71)
@ 2/20 4 PM
#3 Tufts (19-5, 7-3) (77)

#7 Bowdoin (12-10, 4-6) (76)
@ 2/20 4 PM
#2 Amherst (20-4, 8-2) (83)

#5 Wesleyan (18-6, 5-5) (74)
@ 2/20 3 PM
#4 Middlebury (14-10, 6-4) (86)

Semifinals & finals 2/27-2/28 @ Trinity:

#4 Middlebury (15-10, 6-4) (70)
@ 2/27 2 PM
#1 Trinity (CT) (19-6, 9-1) (58)

#2 Amherst (21-4, 8-2) (86)

#4 Middlebury (16-10, 6-4)
vs. 2/28 12 PM
#2 Amherst (22-4, 8-2)
Trinity & Amherst are locks, and Tufts is almost a lock as well.  Middlebury isn't getting a pool C, so, so far bubble teams are still OK.  If Middlebury wins Sunday however...

MASCAC is set.  I'll update later tonight.

MASCAC: top 6 in, top 2 bye's to the semifinals, higher seed hosts throughout.  With the conference only having 7 teams I don't understand why they don't take all 7, would it be that difficult to play a play in game between #6 & #7 on Monday night??

#4 Worcester (16-9, 8-4) (90)
vs. 2/23 7 PM (@ Assumption College)
#5 Westfield (10-15, 4-8) (91 [overtime])
Winner to #1 Fitchburg (16-9, 9-3) 2/25 7 PM

@ 2/25 7 PM
#2 Salem (15-10, 9-3) (72)

#2 Salem (16-10, 9-3) (78)
@ 2/27 1 PM
#1 Fitchburg (17-9, 9-3) (82)
Fitchburg wins the AQ and nobody else is remotely close to sniffing the field.  The MASCAC will be a 1 bid league represented by the Fitchburg State Falcons.

Staten Island & Lehman are probably on the wrong side of the bubble, so the Bulldogs should get the lone bid out of this league.

Liberty League: Top 4, higher seed hosts throughout

#3 St. Lawrence (13-11, 9-7) (91)
@ 2/24 7 PM
#2 Union (13-11, 10-6) (85)

#4 Vassar (12-13, 8-8) (71)

#3 St. Lawrence (14-11, 9-7) (68)
@ 2/27 4 PM
#1 Skidmore (17-8, 11-5) (72)
Nobody else is a serious threat to nab a pool C spot, so the Thoroughbreds will be the conference's lone NCAA team.
