I'd like St. Peter's to finish 7th. Essentially we have beaten them twice for 39min and 58 seconds
If we were to win I'd still like to play QU. I understand we have been manhandled twice by them but I think we can beat them. Their guards are at least even with ours but their front court is much better. If we could deny entry and rebound we could win. No easy feat but the alternative is Billy Baron or Manhattan. I think Manhattan would love to destroy us.
It's easier to stop a good front court than a good backcourt is my thinking. So I will be rooting for a st Pete 7th place and qu 2nd place scenario today
It would be fun to play Canisius again with all the emotion of the last game though so I would not be too disappointed with Griffs in 2nd place
Easy boys, let get back to reality. Lets not think about the second round opponent in the tourney until we win the pig game. Remember this team has not been consistent all year long. There is no reason to believe anything has changed and we can win a second game in a row after beating marist at the WBA on friday. Despite what the "wizard from IVY league" thinks , the stags are still not a good team and continue to struggle with playing a solid 37 minutes and then closing out the game in the last 3 minutes.

About the only thing we know for sure is, the Stags will certainly be wearing the red uniforms throughout the tournament no matter how many rounds they get to play.

We will be wearing white jerseys if we play Niagara in the Semi's .
Also of note is that frosh Kasim Chandler of Q-Pac has missed the last 8 games with a broken toe. He was their 1st guard off the bench and their 5th leading scorer. He started the season on fire, but tailed off in mid-season.
74, agree that we are still a PIG team, but our 1st round game will be a 50-50 chance of winning. I like our chances. Except maybe for Rider, who we have a tough time with 6-7 Danny Stewart, their quick 6-7 Senior center.
Right now, Marist is blowing out Quinnipiac, and Iona is blowing out Rider. So its looking like.... If St Peters wins, we play them. If St Peters loses, we play Rider.
Rider Finishes # 7 with a loss and a Saint Peter’s LOSS AND Marist WIN Saint Peter’s Finishes # 7 with WIN AND Rider LOSS AND Marist WIN
Iona wins..... Stags open with Peacocks. 2nd round (Quarters) will be against the winner of Canisius/Manhattan game (Manhattan up 13 at the half) 3rd round (Semis) will be against either Niagara, Marist, or Quinnipiac 4th round (Finals) will be against Iona, Siena, Rider, Monmouth or loser of Canisius/Manhattan ,
