Might as well have it's own thread. Thats right I am sour.
Yup, Mville got a raw deal, but I don't think it's the first time the ECAC-W playoff champ didn't receive the Pool B bid. I'm pretty sure Hobart was awarded the Pool B in '06 after losing in the ECAC-W semis? (however, I think the playoff champ that season was awarded a Pool C).
You're wasting your time whining here. They need to schedule tougher out of conference competition... and switch conferences. The ECAC-W is on life support.
Just stupid they should adjust the brackets and Add Mville.
While the ECAC West champion hasn't always won the Pool B bid (I'm not sure if this is true or not.)
I know for a fact that since 1984, the ECAC West champion has NEVER been left out of the tournament until this year with Manhattanville.

That's surprising. I didn't know that. I would have guessed one of those D2 schools that used to be in the W would have won it at some point since '84, but I dunno. The one thing I do know about the W, is that while they are generally well represented in the tournament, aside from Neumann last season and the RIT of old, they sure don't make much noise in the tourney (I think Elmira may have been the National runner up once as well, but that was close to 30 years ago now...)
Okay VD - You got us all excited about your last post being last night. Now you've gone and shot our expectations all to he!!. Is this going to be your last post? or are we going to be let down again?A farce and a travesty. Shame on the NCAA. The players all know who was better. I cannot believe that the NCAA would sanction these 'championship' games and then subject the participants of these games to the treatment they received. Elmira players in tears being consoled by M'ville players only to be jeered and taunted during a bogus post tournament spectacle of meaningless banners and awards. Cheer up boys, we all know you lost not to an EC or Oswego(EC beat Oswego) , but to an undefeatable, nasty, heartless, brainless appendage of the NCAA . Hope it dosen't happen to anyone else's son.
In all seriousness ... Ma'ville got screwed.FINAL POST: AS I said before my beef isn't with any of you posters, as by and large your opinions are well founded.It's just a bitter way to go out,especially when you see closeup the pain(literally) and sacrifice involved in getting to and winning last night's game and then not have a chance to continue.Remember life's not always fair-Good luck and good night.

WOW...That is what Adrian must have felt like the last few years.![]()
I for one agree with you on this, very poor taste by those "idiots", "true fans" of EC do not pull that kind of crap. It's really ignorant for ANY fan of a loosing team to call the winning team "losers" or "you suck"
Manhattanville won the game Sat. night by wanting it more than EC, EC gave that game away.. I was told the winning goal was a result of a bad pass in front of the goal? You never pass in front.
What has been done is done, there is nothing anyone can do about it, we need to move on
