Given their current positions in the NPI table, both WPI and Babson need to win the NEWMAC tournament and get the AQ to make it into the field.  One of those two teams will get the NEWMAC AQ on Saturday with Wheaton losing to WPI in the NEWMAC semifinals today.    Wheaton (MA) is looking to be guaranteed to be in the field through an at-large bid right now due to their position in the NPI table going into the NEWMAC tournament.    Because of WPI beating Wheaton in one of the NEWMAC semifinals today, NEWMAC will take an at-large bid, as Wheaton is not going to fall so far down the NPI table with this loss to be out of the tournament.  As a result, another team on the NPI bubble just got their bubble popped today and will have to win their AQ to get in if they have not already been eliminated from the AQ hunt by virtue of losing in the conference tournament, or in the case of the UAA or Northwest Conference in men's soccer, by failure of finishing in sole possession of first place on the table at the end of this weekend.  We accept the term "bid thief" to refer to a team that just popped another team's bubble.   Maybe we should replace the term "bid thief" with "bubble popper" instead.

BTW, a great turnaround performance by WPI today, winning in today's semifinals on the same Keefe Field in Norton, MA where they went down 3-0 in the first half to Wheaton just a few weeks earlier.

Upon final review of the play-by-play sheet and publication of the official box score from yesterday's Brandeis at UChicago game, there has been another change in the crediting of UChicago's first 2 goals of the match.   Now, the official story of the match is that the first 2 goals scored in the match were caused by Brandeis defenders failing to adequately defend UChicago corner kicks, thus putting the ball into the Judges own net and causing Brandeis own goals.   So, UChicago scored the first 2 goals of the match on Brandeis own goals in the first half before the Judges equalized in the second half by scoring 2 goals of their own.   The game winner for the Maroons was then scored by Chase Perry afterwards.   

Match table after 6 rounds.

Final matchday is on Saturday, November 8, 2025 when the UAA travel partners will play against each other.

UChicago will win the UAA title with at least a draw at WashU.
WashU needs to defeat UChicago next Saturday to win the UAA title.
