Should Jamestown be accepted into the NSIC?

[zimmy21]

In relevant news I did some homework and calculated the NSIC All Sports Award standings through Winter sports.

I thought it would be interesting to see where Jamestown sits in the "True" standings but also to see how they line up if you compare efficiency.
I measured this by taking the amount of points earned divided by the amount of points possible, this sort of levels the playing field for schools who don't sponsor the full 18 NSIC Sponsored sports.

The findings are about what we expected if not worse.

School	Fall (M)	Fall (W)	Winter (M)	Winter (W)	Men Total pts	Women Total pts	Total Pts	Pts Standing	Max Pts Possible	Efficiency	Eff. Standings
Augustana	28	31	35	22	63	53	116	2	167	69.5%	2
Bemidji State	6	25.5	3	7	9	32.5	41.5	15	117	35.5%	12

Jamestown	6.5	20	11.5	8	18	28	46	13	167	27.5%	16

Games start tomorrow. Some of those A games will be clunkers but I have a feeling Edina vs Anoka should be a good one.

Taking a look at how the coaches' vote compares to the mathematical rankings (QRF, PageStat). Some conflicts, I guess.

Class A, first round Wednesday
#1 Hibbing (138.1, 20.73)
#2 Delano (110.1, 19.44)
#3 Warroad (115.3, 20.34)
#4 Mahtomedi (110.0, 19.27)
#5 Cathedral (88.2, 17.55)
#6 Northern Lakes (91.4, 17.11)
#7 Mankato West (92.8, 16.98)
#8 Dodge County (88.0, 16.09)

Class AA, first round Thursday
#1 Minnetonka (160.2, 23.04)
#2 Moorhead (159.2, 22.77)
#3 Edina (149.4, 21.89)
#4 Rosemount (143.0, 21.71)
#5 Grand Rapids (104.1, 20.04)
#6 Andover (99.2, 19.10)
#7 Lakeville South (105.6, 19.72)
#8 Genrtry Academy (106.5, 19.65)

Also of note. For the Quarterfinals, Hibbing will be without the player that scored the OT goal, and Rosemount will be without their starting goalie due to them flipping off the opponent's fans after their wins. Suspended for one game each. Opps.......

Jamestown gets their first baseball win over Rockhurst.

1-9 on the season

[Millsy]

lots of hockey talk here in the last couple of pages.

Jamestown has a solid Hockey team. I saw them play Waldorf in Albert Lea.

Lots of big strong fast Canadians.

Same with Minot State. Plus, Minot has Pepsi Arena at the MAYSA Complex, that place is pretty sweet. Has to be a draw compared to some rinks club teams play in. I would venture to guess the locker room for the Beavers is on par with the rink, as I would guess the Minotauros of the NAHL have a decent room.

A Moorhead vs Minnestonka final would give the whole state except for Minnetonka a reason to chher for Moorhead

I felt bad for Stillwater last year, no reason to dislike them but everyone in the state was pulling for Moorhead in the title game.

State Hockey Matchups

Class A, first round Wednesday
#1 Hibbing vs #8 Dodge County 11 AM
#4 Mahtomedi vs #5 Cathedral 1 PM
#2 Delano vs #7 Mankato West 6 PM
#3 Warroad vs #6 Northern Lakes 8 PM

Class AA, first round Thursday
#1 Minnetonka vs #8 Gentry Academy 11 AM
#4 Rosemount vs #5 Grand Rapids 1 PM
#2 Moorhead vs #7 Lakeville South 6 PM
#3 Edina vs #6 Andover

About the only problem I have is Delano getting #2. Warroad had the head to head win over Delano. Mahtomedi had a stronger strength of schedule than Delano. It seems like when it comes to State seeding by the coaches, head to head always seemed to take precident.

solid Class A field Cathedral as a 5 seed and Warroad as a 3 seed shows some depth

CCHA Playoffs, best 2 of 3 series
#8 Ferris at #1 Mankato
#7 Lake Superior at #2 St. Thomas
#6 Bemidji at #3 Augustana
#5 Bowling Green at Michigan Tech

[SW_Mustang]

BSU takes UST to OT.

Mavs beat NMU.

As such - MSU is the MacNaughton Cup champion. What a wild weekend.

[SW_Mustang]

You mean this!

Well, the last night of CCHA play is upon us. What we know heading in:

1-5 are undecided
6 is Bemidji
7 is Lake Superior
8 is Ferris
9 is Northern Michigan

I read somewhere that there are 17 different ways 1-5 can play out, something like 216 different tie breaker scenerios that could come into play.

BGSU knocks Tech off in OT - no McNasty Cup for either.

BSU leads UST 2-1 heading into the third

MSU leads NMU 1-0 in the third.

Augie, MSU, and UST still in the hunt.

Since we're all over the place now anyone partaking in the CCHA craziness today?

Or NSIC tournament for that matter?
