The announcers gave nice props to the Lady Danes for winning 7th AE title.

Little more then 6 minutes left UVM 72 - UMBC 36 ..... I guess if I am an UMV fan and paid top dollar for a ticket .... feeling damm good

The UVM party is moving down to Church and College Streets to continue their celebration .... the VT Pub and Brewery https://www.vermontbrewery.com/ must be a happening place ....UMV is predicted a likely thirteenth seed or a less likely twelfth seed by the ESPN announcers

More important is where they send them. Buffalo or Pittsburgh I see them. Anywhere else, I don't miss their fans. 🙂

I hope that UVM, as mentioned above, gets a 13 or 12 seed ... great for the America East ... "a rising tide lifts all (conference) boats" ... will make the chase next year and beyond even more fun

UVM is the 13th seed against 4th seed Arkansas  .... oppose to the MAAC conference 15th seed for St. Peter ....reason for lower seeding not regular season champ

Iona would have been a lower seed that UVM.  They were mainly projected as a 14.  UVM had a stellar year and is the darling pick to get past Arkansas and possibly the Sweet 16.

Yes, that is why they play the games however; UVM has a "tall" task when you compare UVM to Arkansas:

TEAM COMPARISON

NET Rank Arkansa 2Oth vs UVM 52nd

Record vs Top 25 Arkansas 4-I vs UVM O-I

Strength of Schedule Arkansas 48th vs UVM 228th

Vermont does a slightly better field goal average and  3 pt shooting average
