Re: SAC
Heard rumor Tusculum has their new coach but nothing posted? Any rumors
Re: SAC
Positioning for the upcoming 6 team conference tourney:
1. Queens 9-0 - left: (UMO OOC), Catawba
2. Wingate 8-1 - left: @Tusculum
3. Limestone 7-2 - left: @Newberry
4. LMU 5-4 - left: Newberry
5. Newberry 4-4 - left: Limestone, @LMU
5. Catawba 4-4 - left: LR, @Queens
5. LR 4-4 - left: @Catawba, @Mars Hill
8. Mars Hill 3-6 - left: LR
9. UVA Wise 2-6 - left: Tusculum, @Coker
10. Tusculum 1-7 - left: @UVA Wise, Wingate
11. Coker 0-9 - left: UVA Wise
Top 3 should win out, adding one loss to Newberry, Catawba, and Tusculum. Bottom 2 teams essentially have no chance at tourney with seven or more losses. LMU beating Newberry solidifies a home quarterfinal with a 6-4 record. Newberry winning the LMU game puts both of them at 5-5. If Catawba beats LR then they also finish at 5-5. If LR beats Catawba, Catawba finishes at 4-6, and LR with a win over Mars Hill can get to 6-4. Wise and Mars Hill can only get in if someone else above them finishes at 4-6 and ties them and the tiebreakers work in their favor.

Re: SAC
Recalculating positioning for the upcoming 6 team conference tourney (conference records shown):
1. Queens 9-0 - left: Catawba
2. Wingate 8-1 - left: @Tusculum
3. Limestone 8-2 - done
4. LMU 5-4 - left: Newberry
4. LR 5-4 - left: @Mars Hill
6. Newberry 4-5 - left: @LMU
6. Catawba 4-5 - left: @Queens
8. Mars Hill 3-6 - left: LR
9. UVA Wise 2-6 - left: Tusculum, @Coker
10. Tusculum 1-7 - left: @UVA Wise, Wingate
11. Coker 0-9 - left: UVA Wise
Top 3 should win out, but even if Queens and/or Wingate lose their last conference matchup, seedings will be the order above due to tiebreakers.
Catawba not likely to prevail @Queens, so the remaining games between LMU and Newberry and the LR vs. Mars Hill contests should determine the seedings for the rest of the field (LMU, LR, Newberry). Even if both Newberry and Catawba lose their last game Newberry beat Catawba in the regular season and would get the last spot.
