Hopefully they win again Friday night to improve those records, but even if they lose, they will still be at .500 for the season at 15-15 while playing in the 8th best conference in the nation. Also note that, even though it was a result of tiebreakers, UE can still claim a 3rd place finish in the conference standing only behind 2 ranked teams. So, yes, I would think they could try to get into a postseason tourney again....hopefully their RPI continues to climb following their win yesterday against MSU coupled with wins by TCU (vs New Mexico), North Carolina (vs Virginia), and maybe IU (today vs Minnesota).


Non D1 games do not count. The Aces are 14-14 in the eyes of the NCAA.

If they get over 500, it's not inconceivable that UE can get into the CIT.

Incorrect. In the eyes on the NCAA, the Aces are 15-14. The NCAA recognizes DII as an official contest. In the eyes of the other tournaments, they may be 14-14, but they are 15-14 in the eyes of the NCAA.

Interesting, I always thought DII games did not count in the eyes of the tourney committee.
