The tribe needed a little "pick me up" considering that blistering High Point put on them last night.

Hoping for an at large at this point. Frustrating to see them almost break the trend of the past few seasons of a fast start and stuttering to the finish

I don't like the lack of pressure from our forwards. The Tribe pressured us the whole game and it paid off. In fact, they pressured all over the field better than we did.

We live and die by a European style of play. Sometimes it leads to frustrating results, especially against a tough CAA that knows us well. But I think it gives us an edge in non-conference, which is of course what you need to win NCAA Tournament games.
As disappointing as the latter third of our season was, don't bet against us to make a run in the tourney.

Are they going to get an at large?

Very good chance we get one. Finishing 2nd and making the title game in a tough CAA historically has gotten a team in, as this is a league used to getting multiple bids. We were also ranked for a substantial number of weeks, which helps. We also had an RPI of 38 entering the CAA Tournament.
Coastal Carolina, who clinched an autobid to the NCAA Tournament over the weekend, finished the season 8-0-1. Their last loss? October 3rd against us, when we were # 15. UNC, our other "signature win", finished the campaign at 14-3-1 overall. They only lost 2 matches the rest of the season after losing to us, which included a loss against eventual ACC champion Wake Forest. That just goes to show how legit a lot of our wins on our resume are.
Our play late in the season probably cost us the chance to host a 1st round match, however.
The selections will be made today at 1 PM EST.

Elon and Delaware made it in last year. As the #2 seed, CAA finalist, and strong RPI, you'll probably draw one of the ACC teams that didn't win their conference. My guess is you'll face UNC or UVA.

Solid draw! Normally I'd complain about the potential of facing a team we already beat earlier in the season in UNC, but given that we were a "bubble team" anyways, it's a solid draw.
Gotta get past PC first, of course. They went 6-8-5 overall out of the Big South, with an RPI of 120.

W&M hosts Columbia on Thursday. Winner faces # 1 overall seed Wake Forest.
Coastal, who we also beat, hosts Mercer on Thursday. Winner faces # 8 Clemson.

Awful draw for the Tribe, by the way. Columbia's RPI is 29, and Wake was # 1 in seeding AND # 1 in the RPI. They deserved better.

W&M falls 2-1 to Columbia in the 2nd OT period. Tough draw, and tough loss.
UNCW is now the only CAA team remaining in the field.
