| | Who picks the D3 brackets, and what planet are they from? Does Ithaca College have to beat Nazereth every year to get in the playoffs? Do they have to put Hobart back on the schedule again? If that what it takes, they should play Syracuse and Cornell instead of Hartwick, Alfred or Cortland. Even those teams are much better than some of the teams that made it. The problem is that everyone in upstate loses to each other when if they played teams like Springfield, Widner or NE College, they would go undefeated. This year the Bombers lost a tight one to Nazereth by two (had a lead in the forth) and lost one goal games to RIT and Elmira. Just because 3 upstate NY teams already made the field, doesn't mean the NCAA has to let in teams like Widner, Springfield or NE college. NE college didn't play anybody, and I mean NOBODY!! Ithaca smoked Widner by almost 10 goals and that there should have been sufficient to put the Bombers in the playoffs over them. The NCAA just doesn't seem to get it, and that goes for football too. These Mass and NE schools never play anybody in Lax or Football, and just end up embarrassing themselves in the end. The exception of course is Middelbury in Lax and Williams in football. |
