At this point in the season, it’s all about opportunity.
That’s why the chart of at-large teams in the weekly bracket exercise is reduced to only a dozen teams scrambling for eight spots. It’s not that top-30 teams in the America East (Albany), the Metro Atlantic (Monmouth), the Northeast (Hobart and Bryant) and the Southern (High Point) conferences have no chance to make the NCAA tournament.
But because of some combination of a questionable loss or two, the absence of high-end victories and (especially) no games left against potential top-10 teams, they basically have one opportunity left: To win their conference tournaments.

One of this season’s blessings is that there aren’t nearly as many what-ifs associated with it as a year ago, when the pandemic wiped out the final seven weeks of the regular season, plus the NCAA tournament.
Which isn’t to say there aren’t things to wonder about. Just how the Ivy League’s teams would have fared is something we’ll never know; Penn’s return to action on Friday at Division III Cabrini aside.
For the purposes of projecting an NCAA tournament bracket, it would be great to know how Maryland would have done against non-Big Ten competition. The Terrapins are 9-0 after Sunday’s 18-8 pummeling of Ohio State and have outscored their largely overmatched conference foes by an average of 7.44 goals a game. They have yet to trail in the second half in any game.
