CTC Day Thirteen Preview: The Long-Forgotten AmEast Championship

I know that it has been almost a week since this conference had any tournament games (and they weren’t all that memorable anyway), but we are finally ready for the AmEast title game today from Stony Brook.

Four people went perfect in the quarterfinals and semifinals (and all four lost the opening round game) to set up a showdown in the championship here.  Two of the, Gersh and RDoc, have Stony Brook and would split the title if they win.  The other two, Scoot and Waters, have Vermont and would split the title if they win.  Doogan wins the money division if Vermont wins the title.

#1 Stony Brook vs. #2 Vermont
Both teams are coming off nail-biting wins last Sunday in the semis.  Stony Brook had a miracle tip-in the buzzer to knock off Albany, while Vermont needed two overtimes (and a lot of luck) to beat #6 Hartford.  But, they both made it, have had 6 days off to recover and are ready to get it on for the auto-bid and the 16-seed. 

8 people have Stony Brook here (Bry, Dave, Gersh, Gross, Lil Lohse, Lynch, Rikey, RDoc).  2 people (Primm-Albany and KA-Hartford) have already lost this game.  The other 10 have the 2nd-seeded Catamounts of UVM.
