Northeastern, by defeating Mass-Lowell last night, not only
reversed their comparisons with Miami and St. Cloud (and RPI) to move
into position for the last place in the NCAA tournament, but also
knocked UML back down from the ranks of Teams Under Consideration. On
top of that, Clarkson won, UNH lost and Yale tied, and that moved
Clarkson back into position for the second Eastern bye:
Team lPWR RPI Comps Won
1 Boston Univ 5 .607 CkBCNHYaNE
2 Clarkson 4 .572 BCNHYaNE
3 Boston Coll 3 .578 __ NHYaNE
4 New Hampshire 2 .567 ____ YaNE
5 Yale 1 .560 ______ NE
6 NorthEastern 0 .527 ________
Note that for once the comparisons are completely transitive. This is
true for the entire top twelve: each of them wins comparisons with
every team below them in the PWR. This means that with the current
numbers, using the total PWR is just the same as going by individual
comparisons.
