Curious why Norwich below Elmira after going 1-0-1 against them? Granted, both very close games with NU scoring with an extra attacker to tie the first one and then a 1-0 win in the home game two weeks ago.

NU's only two losses came to Plattsburgh, both by 3-1 scores and both times Plattsburgh's third goal came in the final minute.

Concordia/Moorhead and Augsburg play this weekend in Moorhead. Augsburg has the best defense in the conference and Concordia has the best offense. Should be a good series.

River Falls is absolutely a top 5 team. Where exactly is hard to say without any cross-over games, but make no mistake about it. They are not worse than Utica, Oswego, Amherst, Conn College, or Williams. Lake Forest should probably be in the 8-10 area too. With 9 eastern teams on this list, has anyone checked on gojackets to make sure he's ok?

After Plattsburgh, Adrian, Elmira, Norwich, Middlebury I think it's pretty murky without much to compare. I do think LF and UWRF are legit but I'm sure the eastern schools listed feel the same.

My question will be how the Pool B works out this year. Will Morrisville or Endicott take the slot from UWRF if they don't run the table (which they won't)? As a western fan that would be tough to swallow but I really don't know how good either of those teams are. They haven't played a difficult schedule (but neither has UWRF) but have handled the people they should. They certainly have a case they should be in that slot. Really wish they had added that 9th team this year.

You could be looking at just Adrian and the MIAC winner from the west this year.

I will be shocked if River Falls doesn't win Pool B.

I agree with Prez... I'd be stunned beyond belief. Endicott & Morrisville's SOS will be so weak, they won't even be seriously considered. Those schools could have run the table (undefeated season) and I'm not sure they would be considered.
