B isn't updated. They're solely based on performance.

This is interesting, but I don't think it's too accurate. While I do believe the WCRHL is very strong, I don't think we should 5 teams in the top 10.

this is like 90% ok, colorado state is way to high for their region.

Cool thanks! It definetely has issues.. It has George Mason (D1) losing to Georgia College (D2) which is interesting considering we never played one another...

I appreciate the rankings and i think they are interesting but I take issue with the 5 wcrhl teams in the top 10, 4 of which in the top 5? sorry that to me is way wrong. LBS at #1 wen their barley over 500, Arizona State below 500, Florid Gold Coast, Metro State Denver etc etc...Bring all those guys down below the top 10. Bring West Chester, Michigan State, Stony Brook, Bethal and Neumann each up a couple spots and maybe we got a little bit more accurate ranking. I dont like how the WCRHL gets such blind respect, they are not the only conference out there.

The WCRHL getting ANY respect is a relatively new phenomenon. If it wasn't for their outstanding performance at nationals last year it would be the same old "ECRHL this" and "MCRHL that". Each division rises and falls year to year though. I do think that the WCRHL has the most talent and parity ever, compared to previous years. It is truly a division where regionals could be won by any of the top 5. It is very believable that they would all be in the top 10 nationally. However, my to 10 would look more like this:
1. Lindenwood (until they are beaten they are #1)
2. Michigan State (Closest game to Lindenwood)
3. Cal Poly SLO (I'm a little biased but they looked very strong in Santa Barbara last tournament)
4. UNLV
5. UCSB
6. West Chester
7. Long Beach
8. Stony Brook
9. Ohio State (Beat Michigan State)
10. At this point it's a toss up between ASU, Neuman, and Bethel.

This isn't based any math. Just my opinion of where the teams currently stand. Rankings in the NCRHA are always up to heavy interpretation as there is not very much inter-regional play but they are always fun!

Neumann where SBU is, WCU is top 3 no question.

Personally I feel the ECRHA is overrated. There teams pretty much all finished at the bottom of there respected pools at nationals last year. http://ncrha.org/schedule.php?&event...291&area=pools. Hopefully less teams from the ECRHA will attend this year.

Not the seven which were selected last year. Not that it matters, George Mason did get a bid last year.
