Bracketology #4: The Final Countdown

The final regular-season ball has been struck, the results are in, and the selection committee is doubtlessly hard at work trying to come up with a fair bracket. I’m not sure if this recommendation is coming too late, but I would like to remind coaches to put in bids to host, even if they’re not…

NESCAC Semifinal Preview(s)

We had two really good quarterfinals earlier today, as Bowdoin held off Bates and Williams upset Amherst. Both Bowdoin and Williams should have punched their tickets to NCAAs with their wins, and are now playing for NCAA seeding, as are Wesleyan and Middlebury. Wes and Midd both have real chances to be top-4 seeds overall,…

NESCAC Quarterfinal Preview(s)

Happy NESCACs Eve, boys and girls. There has been a lot of chatter about Tufts being left out of NESCACs and I, along with some of the other writers, have made our feelings clear on the issue, but it’s time to look ahead to the tournament itself! We have two rivalry quarterfinals ahead of us, which should…

Pool C Update #4 – Pre NESCAC

DAMN ASOUTH, BACK AT IT AGAIN WITH ANOTHER POOL C ARTICLE! I took the weekend off to spend some time with all the other people in the world that matter to me, so that is why you didn’t see me all too much over the weekend. Just because I wasn’t there doesn’t mean a lot didn’t…

NESCAC SCENARIOS (Sunday Edition)

As promised, I’m back to give a quick run down of the possible NESCAC scenarios after today’s results. #4 Amherst def. #9 Williams 7-2, #5 Wesleyan def #18 Bates 8-1, and #7 Bowdoin def. #15 Tufts 5-4. Now that Saturday’s matches are taken care of, the number of hypothetical scenarios has been cut down dramatically. The matches with…

NE Weekend Preview/NESCAC SCENARIOS!

WARNING: What I’m about to attempt is a highly dangerous. Side effects include headaches, nausea, and angry comments about possible scenarios that I missed. Yes, there are still so many NESCAC scenarios that I’m sure I will miss something as I try to sift through all the muck that is the top of the conference…
