Statistics displays on the CCIW site continue to be substandard* :
*and absurd and defective.

Speaking of absurd, the site's WBB Schedule has IWU playing both NCC and Millikin simultaneously on 23-feb at 7pm in Bloomington.  I know IWU is good, but . . .

Brovelli being injured and out, a big problem vs. Wheaton.  Still don't understand why Mia didn't sub Eck in when Brovelli had to depart, not Lowis -- to shoot the FTs.  Odd.  Was Eck already in the game?

No.  All starters were still in when Brovelli was fouled, went down and left the game at 5:42 1st.  Eck entered the game at 5:09 1st replacing Kendall Sosa.

The not-so-secret tie-breaker formula has been modified slightly this year:

Item 3 in Greg's list now reads "below the tie" instead of "in 3rd place"
Item 5 now reads "in their last eight conference games (reflecting the change to a 16-game schedule)

Sources:  CCIW Basketball Sports Guides (2019 editions)

The Women's Guide also includes an example of how to determine "head to head" records when more than two teams are tied.

I watched some of the NP-NC webcast, but more of the Millikin at Augie game. Greg, did NP test NC's ballhandling with some fullcourt defense at all? I was expecting that, but didn't see it.
I did notice that we had a correspondent on the scene, who may tell us what that was when a fan got to midcourt to presumably complain about something. I think Illinois has a state law specifically protecting refs. It was extremely stupid of that person (she?) to advance onto the court.

I was at the NP-NCC game.  The fan in question is one of the parents of North Park's Josie Summerville, visiting from Adairsville, GA.  She was vocally displeased with the officials for most of the game before entering the court to complain in person, as it were.  I thought Rhonda Mont, the official directly concerned, showed great restraint in neither asking that Mary Summerville be ejected from the arena, nor assessing North Park an Administrative Technical Foul (2 FT, resume play at point of interruption).  As Lucas has posted, NCC Police were summoned and had a chat with Mary subsequently.  She was still in the building after the game and was allowed(?) to visit with her daughter, albeit with the Police watching.  I don't know what happened after that.

The officials otherwise had a busy night, calling 43 fouls (28 on NP; 15 on NCC) and administering 51 free throws (35 by NCC).  In fact, NP won the game from the field by 5 points and it was the free throw disparity that provided the winning margin for NCC, though the Cardinals shot only 57% from the line.

Did we decide whether a player's accomplishments in non-conference games are included in all-conference / MOP contemplation?

Since the all-conference players are selected from a list of nominees submitted by the coaches, and there are no published nominating "guidelines" that I'm aware of, perhaps we need to ask the coaches themselves how much weight they give to accomplishments in the non-conference portion of the schedule.

Last year the All-CCIW team (including the MOP) was announced on the Tuesday that the CCIW tourney began. The press release came out in the morning, the games were played that night.

It should be the same this year - the CCIW Women's Basketball Sports Guide (July 2019 version) states that "Coaches will conduct their all-conference voting via conference call on the Monday of the week of the conference tournament at 10 a.m."  Then, "The 'Lori Kerans Most Outstanding Player' is selected from the eight-member first team immediately after the first team voting has been completed.
