After our 3 point weekend, and air force's sweep of AIC, we are again tied for first place. RIT technically has first, as we have more conference wins (our record is 9-2-1, AF is 8-1-3). Air Force will likely gain sole possession of first place in the next few weeks. Our next games are non-conference; Saturday against Niagara, and then 1/1 and 1/2 at Minnesota State. Both of these weekends, Air Force has conference games against Mercyhurst and Sacred Heart, so they will have played 4 games more than us. (if mercyhurst sweeps AF, they will gain first place). These games are made up in February. They have non conference games on 2/5 and 2/6, when we play at Sacred Heart, and AF is off the following weekend when we play at Army. The weekend after that, (2/19 and 2/20), we host Air Force...Those games will most likely decide who will win the conference.
I am not too worried about losing first place now, as it only matters who has it on February 28th.
