As soon as I published the last blog post I caused an almost immediate SOHLER FLARE because I was reminded within minutes that I forgot to preview the Patriot League games today. I have officially updated the master spreadsheet to account for the Patriot League conference tournament starting today. Let's go over the disaster that was the first round of the Patriot League conference tournament before recapping the Atlantic 10 and Ohio Valley conference tournaments.
Patriot League
- (10) Lehigh cruised by (7) Boston in the only Patriot League game today. This game was a snooze fest.
- (9) Loyola Maryland advanced by (8) Holy Cross due to Holy Cross forfeiting due to COVID. Although no one in our pool picked Holy Cross I'm sure this is not the last we'll see of this scenario, it just happened to be a 8/9 matchup in a low major league making it not a big deal.
Atlantic 10
A bunch of teams that only Dan Sohler cares about played today so no impact to our pool. (13) St. Joseph's defeated (12) LaSalle in a game that was played at 10:00 AM central time today, while only a few hour later (14) Fordham lost a close game to (11) George Washington.
Ohio Valley
In what would be unconventional for a conference tournament, only the 1 and 2 seeds played the first round today which put 24 out of 30 people at risk. Sounds dramatic, but both (1) Belmont and (2) Morehead State cruised right on by (8) SIUE and (7) SE Missouri State.
