Pomeroy's current projections of wins for the PL season: Bucknell 14.1 Army 11.2 Colgate 10.3 Navy 10.0 Lehigh 9.9 Boston U 8.1 Loyola MD 6.9 Lafayette 6.6 American 6.5 Holy Cross 6.5 I would expect Army and maybe LC to end up with fewer wins. Also I expect Boston U, maybe American (assuming good health), and maybe HC to get more. As for Loyola, if they get healthy, I'd vote for more wins. But if Walker is out for the year, I'd expect less than 6.9. Some might be surprised at the thought of American winning 7 or more games - especially given their current 2-5 record - but I think that record may be misleading, with several factors possibly making them better than was expected. First, their very good sophomore center Mark Gasperini has yet to play due to a concussion. Secondly, their transfer SF Larry Motuzis is averaging 17.9 ppg with a very good FG pct. Also their FOY candidate, SF Sam Iorio, has missed recent games due to illness. And juco transfer Cheikh Diallo has been giving them good minutes - perhaps more than was expected.
