That's a tough loss. Damn. Let's take a look at things:

- RPI Maryland goes up a notch to #3. RU, however, drops from 27 to 36 (which seems a bit odd to me....)

I can't imagine that making sense in any way.

All I can think of is
a) winning is better than losing for RPI
b) playing away is better than playing at home for RPI.

But even so, I don't understand this.

i think we have to go need a minimum of 7 points from those games. 8 would be great... 9-12 tremendous...I say that without fully understanding the B1G table... I am more thinking about the NCAAs...

winning last night would have been huge. but onwards

I have a lot of belief in this team...they're very skilled. still not as opportunistic as I would like (for example, our captain needed to bury that chance with 2 mins to go...instead he hits it right at the keeper....ugh)
