Yes, that's an impressive bit of work. Also +1

Titan Q

If this was the Division I tournament, with a bracket truly built around pure seeding, it would seem the #1 and #2 seeds would be...

#1 seeds
1. Amherst: .923/.587/9-0
2. Washington U.: .920/.588/9-2
3. UW-Stevens Point: .963/.586/6-1
4. Illinois Wesleyan: .852/.560/8-3

#2 seeds
5. Wooster: .923/.543/7-2
6. UW-Whitewater: .852/.579/4-2
7. Williams: .846/.567/4-3
8. Brockport State: .885/.553/4-2

Regardless of order, it will be very interesting to see how these 8 are bracketed - seems to me these are the top 8 seeds in the tournament.

Well I'm not sure I possess any skills to do this either, but my best guess...

(And disclaimer, the Division III bracket is not actually seeded perfectly due to geographical limitations.  So this is basically just for fun.)

#1 seeds
1. Amherst: .923/.587/9-0
2. Washington U.: .920/.588/9-2
3. UW-Stevens Point: .963/.586/6-1
4. Illinois Wesleyan: .852/.560/8-3

#2 seeds
5. Wooster: .923/.543/7-2
6. UW-Whitewater: .852/.579/4-2
7. Williams: .846/.567/4-3
8. Brockport State: .885/.553/4-2

#3 seeds
9. SUNY-Purchase: .926/.522/5-1
10. Cabrini: .962/.513/3-0
11. Wheaton: .704/.607/8-5
12. Plattsburgh State: .815/.553/4-4   

#4 seeds
13. Scranton: .889/.545/2-1
14. Wesley: .870/.529/5-0 
15. Richard Stockton: .852/.537/4-2
16. Babson: .769/.567/3-5

Stuff like this just makes march madness that much better. Awesome job Titan! Can't wait for noon tomorrow

I love the bracket projections.  Great job!

Lots of head scratching with this bracket.

Emory hosting?

And couldn't they figure out a way to get Wooster out of that region?  It's killer.

Yeah, they need to prevent this kind of mass turnover in the committee going forward.  Some rookie mistakes there.

What time are the first round games usually on Friday? And 2nd round Saturday? Night or afternoon? Or staggered?

 There are 5 regions sharing 8 hosting spots on the right side and only 3 regions sharing on the left-discounting the Emory anomaly. Randy-Mac lost to Scranton head-to-head and has a poorer W-L %; doesn't figure for hosting.

The Saturday games are usually 7.  The Friday ones are either 5 & 7 or 6 & 8 depending on what the host school wants to do, but they are usually at night, however there are some exceptions (Randolph-Macon vs. Stevens last year at 1 in the afternoon) for example.
