The Cats RPI has dropped to 35 with road wins last week. It had been hovering in low 40’s. They are 9-3 against the top 100 teams in the nation. There are 332 D1 teams. The RPI’s of the other top MAC schools:

  Ball 66
  BG 73
  NI 79
 Toledo 87

If OHIO can win out at home this weekend, they should make the NCAA tourney regardless of the MAC tourney outcome. And they’ll be assured a No.1 seed in the MAC tourney. According to a write up on the athletic page, if the Cats win the regular MAC season championship, they will host the tourney in 2014. If true, that’s a big change in the tourney structure as they’ve been playing on one neutral venue for a long time.

Kent (12-15, 6-8) Thursday- Payback time
    One of our 2 MAC defeats came at Kent in 4 sets when their coach, Don Gromala, former assistant under Carlston at both OHIO and State was keying for us and had his players well prepared. The loss knocked us out of the top 25. It’s payback time!

Senior night Saturday against CMU (11-15, 5-9)

Come out and support OHIO’s finest.
