2020 NCAA Championship Thread
- Thread starter UCBadger
- Start date
Last weekend when the Comets were home they hosted Naz at home at 2pm. So im assuming an afternoon game
Re: 2020 NCAA Championship Thread
I have this:
West
St. Thomas (34)/Lake Forest(9) —> UWEC(6)
East-West
Adrian(6)/Hobart(4) —> Geneseo(3)
East
Plymouth(40)/Endicott(7) —> Norwich(2)
Babson(10)/Trinity(8) —> Utica (1)
Utica would get the Babson/Trin-Trin winner because Trinity is 8th in the PWR, which is lower than Endicott. The #1 seed would get the opponent from the pairing with the lower seeded projected winner.
I think this is what we get if Trinity wins. In the unlikely event of a Wesleyan win, things will be different, but I don't think that's going to be in the "Cards"

A few years ago Plattsburgh had to give up a home game because the Women were hosting the Final 4 and the men were told they couldn't play it on Sunday.

Next weekend should be irrelevant with an expected bye.
I'll guess Noon on Saturday 3/21. That'd leave about 3 hours for an ice->field switchover--if that's enough time.

All the side glass is removed, end glass is reinforced, floor laid and carpet rolled out. The four sections on the penalty box side are retracted for a floor level beer garden. On a good night, it takes over 4 hours. Doable I guess but I wouldn't want to be on that crew.

Oh, and they have to convert back to hockey for a Sunday 3pm Comets game. Sunday night would make the most sense if the powers that be would allow it.
And then I would root for triple overtime.

They would play a Saturday morning game before a Sunday night game

Fortunately, WE don't have to figure it out.

Ask Plattsburgh all about it. Remember that they had to give up a home game so the Women could hold the Final 4.
Re: 2020 NCAA Championship Thread
#1. Whoever manages the Aud will not give up any portions of the gate for a UC game.
#2. I am sure the rink staff will have all hands on deck to make the transition.
#3. When making schedules these things are looked at even if they dont come to fruition, such as NCAA playoff game.
Either way I think you are looking at a noon puck drop on Saturday.

Checked the Kennedy Arena calendar and it's wide open Fri 3/20 and Sat 3/21. Prefer this as opposed to potentially giving up the home game.

Re: 2020 NCAA Championship Thread
Does the skate time have to be at your home rink? I seem to remember the Platty issue was finding enough time for 6 teams to have mandated skating time, let alone approval for the game starting times.... Sucks no matter what...a good UC lawyer should probably read the lease...???

What do the contracts say? That will be the ultimate decision maker.

Re: 2020 NCAA Championship Thread
My guess is yes, the practice has to be at the game facility.
