Re: ECAC Pick The Standings 2009-2010
Wholin1 and GRussinko, I didn't mean everyone should be picking Union in their top 4. But they are averaging an 11th-place pick right now, something that strikes me as odd for a team who has been looking better in recent years, even if the standings at the end of the season don't particularly reflect it, and for a team who made it to the second round last year. Now, Brown also made it to the second round, but I don't expect anyone (including myself and other Brown fans) to respect them very much, because frankly they don't deserve it. But Union does deserve some respect, and I'm a little puzzled as to why I'm not finding it. I think they have a decent shot to finish anywhere from 4th-11th this year, as the ECAC is pretty tight this year.

FWIW, a least-square fit to the data posted by GRussinko in post 42 of this thread shows that on average, Union has been improving by about 0.29 places in the standings per year over the time period shown.

Interesting to see Union getting some discussion even if it's only about how they may not really be as bad as the consensus on this thread
. I am guessing however that the media and coaches' polls probably won't have them picked much higher than 8th or 9th either. I think RB has a point, as much as it may hurt to say so, as Union's overall progress has been painfully incremental, but at least they have been heading in the right direction.

Agree - Lehman's recruiting has flown under the radar..he is getting it done without many of the resources of other schools. Losing Vazzano was a tough blow for the squad.

Re: ECAC Pick The Standings 2009-2010
Since I'll revise this eventually this is pointless but since there is no harm...
1. Yale (got a tip from some guy who works in a lab there)
2. Cornell (it bores me just to type this)
3. RPI (I'll feel better about this if we knock off UMASS or UNH)
4. Union (painting a pretty picture for the dutch boys on the thread)
5. Harvard (Lots of talent, not sold on coach)
6. SLU (coming up I think)
7. PU (a dumb reason but.. can't see them being good 3 years in a row)
8. Quinnipiac (dropping in the polls)
9. Clarkson (this is what happens when recruits can't count past 16)
10. Colgate (not ready to Crest)
11. DC (reeling from that 1st round loss)
12. da Bears (if the new coach has a few friends he can double attendance!)
