        RPI beat BU 4-2 earlier in the season.  Does that mean that RPI should
get a higher seed than BU?  Of course not!  One regular season game is not
enough to justify a higher seed placement.  Every team this year has had
their share of poor showings this season (BU vs. Harvard, Mich. vs. Miami,
just to name two).  The question is: Which teams has had more poor showings.
UMass-Lowell, in my opinion, has proved all season and especially in the HE
tournament that they deserve to be the #3 seed in the East.
 
Here are my predictions for the NCAA seedings for what its worth (probably
not much)!
 
      EAST         WEST
 
1  BU           Michigan
2  Harvard      Lake Superior St.
3  UMass-Lowell Minnesota
4  UNH          Wisconsin
5  Michigan St. RPI
6  Northeastern St. Cloud State
 
#5 for East in West works so that the cross-overs will let RPI and MSU play
in the arenas that they are hosting. #6E could very well be Clarkson or Western M
Western Michigan.
