With the first week/weekend of the Hockey East, WCHA, NCHC, Atlantic Hockey,
and Big Ten playoffs in the books, here's a look at the score so far in the
Pick the Tourneys Contest #2 (in which all rounds count the same). Also
included are the scores for the predictions by the USCHO staff (who, it
should be pointed out, don't have to pick all the games at once) and a
"Higher Seed" entry, showing what would have happened if the higher seed for
each game had been picked to win. Thus, in the "Higher Seed" entry, the
quarterfinal series for the WCHA and Atlantic Hockey get picked as sweeps.

The current overall lead in the Pick the Tourneys Contest #2 is held by
William Sangrey with 36 points.

Scoring reminder:  Each correct winner you pick in each round earns you two
points.  There is no bonus in a quarterfinal series for picking the number
of games that the series lasts.

One other scoring note: In Atlantic Hockey, Holy Cross had to forfeit its
first-round game against Sacred Heart, and Bentley had to forfeit its
quarterfinal series against AIC. Thus, Sacred Heart was credited with a
first-round win, and AIC was credited with a quarterfinal sweep.
