Danes not counting on help T-U story includes some photos.

 

Not mentioned is the reason we might not get an at-large if we lose: Strength of Schedule is only average (45th of 91)

Not to worry. WLAx beats UMBC in a totally-in-control game 11-4. Congratulations to the 17-0 Great Danes.

 

Selection show 7:30 tomorrow on NCAA.com We ought to have a pretty good chance for a home game (or two).

That was a lot of fun to watch. It looked like a Varsity vs. JV game out there. Guess Coach B has them up at the right time this year.

Impressive ladies!

 

Are there play-in games on the ladies side?

Are they all played at the home of the team with the best records, until the final 4?

[GreatDanes06]

bunch of garbage. #7 seed and they have to travel to play Dartmouth. they will have to go threw northwestern to make the final four.

Ya..I don't really get it. Only reason I can think of..why a higher seed wouldn't be hosting..is that maybe it conflicts with graduation weekend? Danes were ranked #5 in one of the polls before the conference tournament..wins 2 more games to clinch the title and remain undefeated..then gets a 7 seed and a road game.

 

Not much respect for the only undefeated DI team in the entire country.

Could be a motivating factor... I'd be pissed as hell.

I'd be nervous if I were playing Albany in ANY round.

Looks like this answers the question...

 

"The No. 7-seeded Danes and Big Green will play at 1 p.m. Sunday in Hanover, N.H. As a seeded team, UAlbany normally would host the game, but it's unable to because of commencement that weekend."

Come on, really? Graduate student commencement is at 9 am Saturday, a Family Picnic from 1 to 4, and Torch Night at 8:30. Sunday's undergrad commencement is at 10 am. Should be able to fit a two-hour game in somewhere.

 

Baseball is playing both afternoons.
