White Outside, Hot Inside, Part Deux

The winter weather has condensed the evening's schedule to two games in Baltimore and Haverford. Both contests have playoff implications, as Johns Hopkins can clinch the top seed for the Centennial tournament with a victory over Gettysburg, while the Bullets can move a step closer to securing a playoff berth with a victory. Ursinus needs a victory at Haverford to keep its hopes of garnering the top seed alive. The Fords could see the Bears as a semifinal opponent next weekend and will want to make a statement to the Collegeville quintet. You can watch the action from Gooding Arena at this link.

Steve can correct me if I'm wrong, but it looks to me like the top three seeds on the men's side are set.

1-JHU; 2-Ursinus; 3-Haverford

Gettysburg, McDaniel, Swarthmore, Muhlenberg and Franklin & Marshall battling to see who will meet in the 4-5 game with games tomorrow night and Saturday.

Hopkins is the top seed
Ursinus is #2, while Haverford is #3

Gettysburg may be taking a huge step toward hosting the first round game, but I have to check all scenarios before making anything official.
