NCAA Tournament 2025

The only two teams to beat Messiah this year played each other tonight and Penn State Harrisburg (NPI #71) upsets Rowan (NPI #21) 1-0 scoring the lone goal with less than two minutes left in the game.

What's crazy is that Harrisburg is probably going to be the host of that sectional. Tufts has the men hosting, and neither Mary Washington nor Middlebury can get teams there without 2 flights, while PSU can do it without any.

It looks like Messiah will be hosting the Wash U sectional games on Friday and Saturday due to the Wash U men hosting and Calvin being one of the teams playing.

Here are the top 16 NPI teams that did not make the "sweet 16" in the tournament:

#5 Case Western
#7 Williams
#10 Christopher Newport
#11 Illinois Tech
#12 Lake Forest

The teams that take their place are:

#18 MIT
#20 Swarthmore
#39 Mary Washington
#52 Calvin
#71 Penn State-Harrisburg

The CWRU Lady Spartans definitely fell flat.  Couldn't win in two overtimes despite a one player advantage.

And then completely BOLO'ed the penalty kicks.  Swarthmore deserved to make the Sweet 16.  I hope that they go on to win it all!
