In response to Streamers
Big weekend coming up.
- The C's are playing at home for their lives against Dartmouth, and would really be helped by a win against Harvard.
- Dartmouth - just looking for a win
- Brown at Penn and Princeton could either separate the Bear's from the other bottom 4 or put them in a hole
- Princeton and Penn should move to 5-0 and 4-1 and sitting pretty for the tournament.
- Yale - Does Mason return at Princeton and Penn?
- Harvard - will complete first 5 of 6 on the road at least 4-2, possibly better, all without a healthy Bryce Aiken and Robert Baker.
What does all of this mean? If Mason is healthy and none of Brown, Columbia or Cornell surprise this weekend, the folly of the Ivy Tournament will be exposed as HYPP will have separated themselves from the rest of the league, only to play for nothing, not even home court advantage. Even if Yale gets swept on the road to fall to 2-4, if Mason comes back strong I feel the 4th spot is a foregone conclusion. If Mason is healthy enough for Yale to win at least one of the games, this regular season is in the books, even if Columbia or Cornell win 1 or 2 this weekend.
