The 2014 Edition of My Team Got Screwed by the Selection Committee Thread

Re: The 2014 Edition of My Team Got Screwed by the Selection Committee Thread

Travel distance is more important than seeding when it comes to bracket makeup. It specifically states that in the NCAA D3 manual.
And the distance from Genny to Norwich is different from the distance from Norwich to Genny?

I mistook which comment you were responding to. D'uh!

Yes, for that matchup, it would be the higher seed.

General question I think I know the answer to, does the Norwich loss to St A's not count due to their D2 status? (Opens Can of Worms)

Correct. Committee considers only games within division 3.

NESCAC Gets No Respect

So Trinity gets the snub, and the Polar Bears, fresh off a trip to Ct, get to travel 466 miles in two days?

Break for Norwich with a loss and tie to St A's, but Trinity's Stonehill loss is also wiped... Meaning their only losses are to Amherst twice, Williams and Bowdoin in the semis... That's a tough shake to get snubbed... Not sure how Norwich sneaks in over them especially being ranked #1 in the last rankings... Ultimately the only way to control your own destiny and avoid the smoke is to win your conference, but that's a tough shake for sure.
 
Would that be Norwich's first ever trip to Geneseo?

Yeh let's settle down. Nichols and Salem state didn't get this far to roll over dead for Geneseo and Norwich.

But just to save people the headache - Geneseo and Norwich have never played in their respective histories.

I might even have to go to this one. You can at least be loid at Geneseo

Will this be Salem's first trip to Geneseo? I don't recall the two ever playing before.
