Volleyball opens with two wins

[bob87]

UMBC lost today, but loathsome Bing won. So, if Bing wins twice next weekend, then Great Danes will need to win twice to win regular season and have tourney here. If Bing wins twice, but we lose one, then each will have 3 losses, with 1 against each other . . .and does someone know how such a tie is decided in terms of where the tourney would be? Please don't say it's a coin toss!

 

 

I don't know the tie breakers and I can't find them on the website, but I do know there are other things that will break that potential tie before your would get to a coin flip

BTW . . . last NCAA rankings I saw had UA at 58th . . . out of 330 teams D-1 teams. Wow. Maybe some of those profs who want D-3 sports (yes, some have put that idea out there) should wander over for a game . . . on second thought, nah, they'd just complain about all the expenses involved in uniforms and equipment.

UA simply MUST win both games this weekend -- if loathsome BU wins both and we lose one, then the tiebreaker for hosting the tournament would go to Bing, because they needed only 3 games to beat us, but we needed 5 to beat them . . . Go Great Danes VB!!

Struggled tonight against Hartford but got the W. Not sure why Hartford seems to give this team fits. A match on Sunday against SB with a chance to host the tourney on the line.
