the hockey committee revised their selection criteria by changing the
definition of team under consideration from non-losing record
(winning percentage at least .500) to ratings percentage index at
least .500
There are now 5 teams with losing records that are under consideration
and 5 teams with non-losing records that are not under consideration
win% RPI
Western Michigan 48.21 53.53
Merrimack 46.55 53.43
Notre Dame 44.83 52.13
Mass.-Lowell 39.66 51.34
Michigan Tech 37.93 50.54
Alabama-Huntsvill 59.62 49.55
Brown 50.00 49.54
Quinnipiac 67.31 48.66
Mercyhurst 55.56 47.24
Wayne State 53.57 46.69
next question is whether teams that do not qualify as a team under
consideration, yet receive automatic bids, are to be treated as a TUC
for purposes of PWR calculations.
