The ladies got robbed... again!

This time more obvious than ever!

As I posted on FB earlier. I'm sure the Committee placed them as 5th seed because it didn't want an easy path for Stony Brook. If Stony Brook was anything higher than a fifth seed they would be hosting the second round and the QF (if they win against Penn St. /UPenn) and then play at home the rest of the way (Semifinals/Championship hosted at LaValle) assuming they win. This is a big IF and we shouldn't get ahead of ourselves... But the NCAA is avoiding a non-power 5 getting such a path at all costs.
I’m not sure considering the NCAA gave Albany (non-power 5) a 2 seed despite a bad loss. One poster on laxpower suggested there’s an inherent bias against ladies teams with male coaches.

You've got to be kidding me lol. What a time to be alive! How people can be so petty is beyond me, but there ya go I guess. They must hate what Geno Auriemma is doing at Uconn then.
