Updated AE Commish Cup Standings

[GreatDanes06]

I asked the questions about how Softball's third straight title helps UA in the Commish Cup. Doing the math, the most updated standings are what I have (NOTE - THIS IS BASED ON MY MATH...IT COULD BE RIGHT IT COULD BE WRONG)

 

1. Boston (356)

2. UAlbany (329)

3. UMBC (273)

4. Binghamton (268)

5. Vermont (253)

6. UNH (240)

7. Stony Brook (230)

8. Maine (200)

9. Hartford (185)

 

Based on the above standing, UAlbany needs 28 points to beat out Boston. This means it comes down to Baseball. Based on the current standings, the best UAlbany can do in the regular season is third. For UAlbany to win the Commish Cup, it needs its baseball team to be seeded #3 in the Tournament AND win the Tournament! Finishign fourth in the regular season would leave the Great Danes short. A third place finish and a championship would give Albany the 1 point to beat Boston.

 

Whatever happens, who ever wins this cup is winning it by less then 20 points.

 

Like I said these are my numbers. If I did the math correct, then it could be right or wrong.

Albany enters the last weekend one game behind Maine and 1/2 ahead of UVM. We play four games at UVM and Maine hosts league-leading Binghamton. So we need to win two more than Maine this weekend to accomplish step 1, finishing third.

Albany baseball took three of four from Vermont this weekend. We need Bing to sweep their doubleheader at Maine to get sole possession of third place - UA finished 13-11, Maine is 12-10 going into tomorrow.

Bing won the first game, and for no reason that I could find, the second game was cancelled, so Maine finishes 12-11 and Albany is an undisputed third place. On to the playoffs!

Are we still alive in our quest to take the Commissioner's Cup? We got the 3rd-place, regular-season finish in baseball, and now we need to beat Binghamton in the A.E. baseball tournament, right?

[UAalum72]

I guess we find out if GreatDanes84's math was correct: Warrings, Gregory and Beaulieu combine for a six-hit shutout and Albany gets to another NCAA tournament this year. A two-out walk, wild pitch and Wyland single in the fifth for the only run

 

Beaulieu comes in to strike out two hitters with the tying run on third in the ninth.

remember I am becoming a Social Studies teacher, not math!! I think my math is right and we take the cup. Whatever the case, this is being taken by less then 20 points.

Whatever happens regarding the Cup, what an amazing year for our athletic program. Darn proud to be a Dane.
