Hmm. I don’t agree, really. Southern Maine has Bowdoin and Mary Washington in its section, plus Salem State, which beat Southern Maine. Scranton would have to get by Baldwin-Wallace, and they already played a tight game this year. Hard to say they have an unfairly clear path since a top team was moved into the bracket.

My Dad would like to know why Southern Maine and Scranton have such clear paths to the Final Four. Anybody agree and do you know why?

Harumph.

I like my brackets better than the real ones.

You drive to a parking lot in NJ or CT or NY and take the bus, train or ferry into NYC and then the Subway to Baruch. Believe me it will be much simpiler than driving and trying to park.

Witt’s regional is tough – but B/W killed themselves with those losses. Witt deserves to host and I really can’t see how they could have evened it out.

Well, unless you give everyone a travel budget.

Baruch is a high seed and merited being given the right to host. Sounds like a good excuse to take the day off!

Does anyone understand te rationale on why the NCAA is sending three schools into the heart of NYC City on a Friday or Saturday to play at Baruch? Traffic getting into Manhatten will be a bear, not to mention the parking problems.

In the past, regional winning percentage has been more important for seleciton than for hosting. That leads me to beleive that Miss may not get the host seed.

Well the real one is out and Midwest gets screwed again. Although, I doubt there is much of a way to fix the problem.

I do have a couple of changes that should have happened in the other brackets.

If they switched Randolph-Macon and Messiah and had Wooster host. That might be too far for Transy, but I doubt it.

That Wittenberg regional seems too tough as well.

Nice work Greg!

That Hope Regional is a KILLER! Wow. Hope the NCAA agrees and puts all three WIAC teams in different regionals the first weekend!
