MIAC Conference race update:

Bethel-MN, GAC and Hamline have clinched MIAC Tournament berths. St. Olaf can clinch the 4th spot with 1 more win. Augsburg, Macalester, St. Catherine and St. Benedict are tied for  the last 2 spots at the moment.

Augsburg: gets Carleton and St. Scholastica
Macalester:  gets Bethel-MN and St. Catherine
St. Catherine:  gets St. Benedict and Macalester
St. Benedict:  gets St. Catherine and Concordia-MN

On paper, Macalester has the toughest schedule of the 4. (and if any of the 4 lose out, per chance a team below them could still sneak in--))

Remaining matches for teams still in contention for the last 4 spots:

Augsburg:  at St. Scholastica
Macalester:  at St. Catherine
St. Benedict:  at Concordia-MN

St. Catherine has to beat Macalester and hope Augsburg and St. Benedict both lose. A St. Catherine loss tomorrow and they're out of contention.
