If the Season Ended Today…

The conference standings are ordered by A-10 winning percentage (through February 25), using the rules to determine conference tournament seeding applied to order those with identical marks. The efficiency differences do not match the conference standings, but that is not unusual. A few of the larger differences, however, do stand out (note the shadings). Massachusetts, George Washington, Virginia Commonwealth and St. Bonaventure in particular are out of place relative to [...]]]> http://rushthecourt.net/2014/02/26/checking-in-on-the-atlantic-10-55/feed/ 0 O26 Mid-Season Awards: Gregg Marshall, Chaz Williams, Jon Severe and Others… http://rushthecourt.net/2014/01/09/o26-mid-season-awards-gregg-marshall-chaz-williams-jon-severe-and-others/ http://rushthecourt.net/2014/01/09/o26-mid-season-awards-gregg-marshall-chaz-williams-jon-severe-and-others/#respond Thu, 09 Jan 2014 17:01:51 +0000 http://rushthecourt.net/?p=101949

All-Conference — Midseason Edition

First Team

With about a third of the 2013-14 season in the books and conference play coming next week, it is time to review the strongest candidates for a midseason All-Conference Team. Some of the same players show up a second year in a row. Chaz Williams, for example, is doing what everyone thought he would… just better. Other names (Cady Lalanne and Cedrick Lindsay) might be new to the list, [...]]]> http://rushthecourt.net/2014/01/01/checking-in-on-the-atlantic-10-48/feed/ 0
