As we have wrapped up another season, and I begin building our recruit list for the next one, I took a look back at how our known recruit & transfer list of athletes performed for their teams this year.  The table below shows what percent of each of the 4 categories came from players on our list:

Quote from: el_jefe_90 on Today at 11:54:27 AMBack to Endicott having to go to IWU, great explanation as to why! Funny thing is, the hockey teams aren't hosting this weekend, so they could have hosted men's basketball!

Men's ice hockey got a bye and is hosting on Saturday, March 21st. Women's ice hockey is going to Hamline. Seems like a lost opportunity for the Gulls.

Unfortunately, Endicott had to make that decision on whether or not they wanted to host an NCAA basketball tournament game on the weekend of March 14 back in the middle of February when the paperwork for the hosting bids were due.  Given the possibility that they could also be in a position to host women's and/or men's ice hockey that same weekend, Endicott may have chosen to play it safe and file bids just for hockey for that weekend, not knowing in advance the position of both hockey teams.  Hindsight is 20/20.   

I guess they did they not realize they could still turn it down if they got that far. I heard same thing happened last year at Trinity for 2nd weekend, but they got lucky as none of the 4 teams filed, so NCAA went back at Trinity and asked if they wanted it since they were the highest seed.
